With the currently crap weather and some saying that they are thinking of feeding, just for us beginners that are in our first full year, or don't have any experience of this, would imagine that they are not going to need the same amount as over wintering? but when should we start to think about feeding, is it just a case of going in the hive and seeing what they have?
We did an extraction last weekend but decided to leave our colonies with 4-5 uncapped frames in the supper each, each had at least one full frame of 14x12 of stores as well. do you think this will be enough?
they have now been hive bound for nearly 2 weeks apart from the odd day.
