A couple of my hives are getting totally honeybound.
I`ve only got foundation and they can`t pull it out fast enough to cope with the major flow we`ve got on at the moment. If i remove the uncapped honey in the brood box and give them foundation they just draw it out and fill it with stores straight away.
I never thought i`d have a problem with having to much honey, lol.
`m going to extract some honey this week just so i can give them back some drawn supers hopefully to clear the backlog a bit.
Anything else i can do ?
