It's gone mental!

Hi guys,

It's all gone bananas down the aipary. I've not been for a couple of weeks and it's absolutely bursting with full supers!

First year I've had a decent harvest, all a bit overwhelming seeing as I can't even lift the supers without causing meyhem.

I've extracted a few, would you advise I put the wet supers above or below the existing supers in he hive?

Cheers

If they're in the middle of a flow, I'd just bang them on top let them get on with it.

I assume you're just putting one on each hive?

Above
If you put them below where the frames aren’t covered in bees you’ll get robbing

I think he means below the full supers above brood box or boxes. Me I always put the empty or new box above brood and under any full supers

Hi guys

For clarification, I have taken a few frames of honey and am ready to put the wet, extracted super frames back in the hive to be cleaned and 're used, should I put them under, above or amung the existing super frames.

Thanks

Of course. Silly me
If there are only two or three supers on I put the wet one on top of the QX
If there are more it goes on top of the stack

Thanks everyone!
