I have a full super of sealed winter stores, sugar not honey, which I removed from one of my hives a couple of weeks ago; what is the best method of storing it until I need it, which will probably be in a couple of weeks unless this weather improves
The reason I have it is that I had a very large buckfast colony going into winter on 14x12 so I left an all but empty super on with no qx when I fed them; they filled it but have obviously been very frugal through the winter and have not touched the super. I can obviously use the frames up as I make splits etc but in the meantime it's just sat there in the shed.
