Subject: diluted honey

 

Hi all

Several messages have become unsyncronised due to my server being down over
last weekend.

A couple of posts refer to the fermenting of dilute honey...It is only
required for the few days that queencells are "open" so we use frame
feeders, in any case the pollen is only "fresh" for 3.5 days and they use
such vast quantities of it that it needs replenishing after 3 or 4 days and
more dilute honey can be provided then. (not regular 3 day inspection
though).
