Hi all, left over from last season (when I started with a nuc, in July), I have a few BB frames made up with foundation, which have been stored in a cardboard box (so, dark, dry conditions). I also have at least one unused/unfinished pack of super foundation. This all looks and smells fine to me ... but then again, I am not a bee !
Is it advisable to use this foundation ? Should I expect any problems getting the bees to draw it ?
Just prepping, as I took the informed decision to inspect last weekend, as my ladies have been going mad over the last three weeks. My 14x12 BB was looking very advanced, with c.a. 3 full frames of stores, masses of BIAS, and even decent amounts of nectar (from where ???) ... So am thinking of next actions, as April approaches.
Thanks in advance.
