Hi All, I have a double brood hive next to an OSR field but have only just got my super sorted as had to wait for new frames to arrive since the old super frames were full of thymol tainted honey from last year. I had left on lots of stores but they have not taken any where near as much as I thought they would yet I have 1 full brood of bees plus the other is 25% full,
I am worried they will fill the brood frames with OSR honey which will be hard to get to before it crystallises.
So my question is - if I put on the super now will it be too late for them to draw it out in time for the OSR ?
How long does a frame take a decent sized hive to drawn a super of foundation frames ?
Thanks again
