I have a colony on brood and a half, with 2 supers on which contain a mixture of capped and uncapped and are no longer filling up, so I would like to take them off pretty soon so I can get on with some varroa treatment. The brood and a half is chock full of brood but with little stores, so how is this for a plan? Remove supers and extract what I can as honey, then extract the remainder and feed back in a rapid feeder followed up with some strong syrup until the hive weight starts to build up. Comments appreciated as always.
