Newbie question...
I know bees draw wax quickly when there's a flow on...
Do bees draw wax with nectar from out of the cells or as it comes into the hive?
Reason I ask is if the weather turns cooler this week and are closed in will they continue to draw from their stores?
I have a hive with 2 supers 3/4 filled and they have filled at least 3 brood frames also if I add a foundation filled super as this is all I have left will they draw with the brood nectar?
Hive is 14x12 rammed with bees and are bringing nectar in faster than they can process it I think
