    Veg Availability (split from Podilia's thread)

    Ok, you plant a bit later than me - I was thinking of this weekend as it happens. So maybe I'll try later and as you say can go in the early potato space. I will be sowing the early greenhouse tomatoes this weekend - just in time for the cold snap! It is a bit of a battle to keep them warm...

    Crikey James - if I grew mine as close together as that it would be a great big pile of rust! How do you do it?

    Thanks. Yes, thinking of the steps already! The loppers sound like a good idea. Will mark up the top bars. Pre drill the frames and have the driver ready for the drywall screws!

    Thanks everyone for comments on the original post. I think I have things a little straighter in my mind! I will be modifying the tbhs. I built them from 30mm Douglas fir and they haven't warped or otherwise deteriorated at all. There is 4 - 6 inches of celotex in the roof (it slants!) and I add...

    Thanks. I hadn't thought of a block underneath standard frames when needed. I don't think the Queen travels any further out from the first honey frame they make so I will know when to add it. This way I've got brood reserves on 14x12 in case I need them and the standard brood frames I can spin...

    Thanks both - standard brood frames then. Supers above might be an interesting project! What about the change over? In the spring when flow on putting top bars in and brood frames with foundation either side and hope they extend down without creating chaos? Or maybe wait and split them them and...

    Top bar to Long Deep question

    I want to convert my 2 Top bar hives to Horizontal deeps rather than cut them up for firewood before someone suggests that! This will involve moving the colony into a 14x12 nuc (that I have converted from a TBH nuc already) whilst I modify the TBH. I'm comfortable with the modifications to the...
