I have a nuc I transferred to a hive in early August,the bees are still on the original 5 frames with 6 frames undrawn foundation in the hive. Is it normal to leave the undrawn foundation in the hive overwinter as it fills up the empty space ( would have thought its quite insulating) or do you putty in dummy boards?
