Going to do an inspection at the weekend but want to feed back my one super of sugar stores/honey to the bees before winter and apiguard.
If there is still lots of capped brood in my bb, can I still move the super above the crown board and do I bruise the cappings? Worried about doing this too early if there isn't enough room, not sure if they are still collecting nectar - I suppose I will know if all the super is full when I look!
Should I wait a bit until there is more room in the bb - won't know situation until I look at the weekend?
Thanks
Andrea
