Hello All:
A little background. New to Beekeeping. Seem to have a healthy, happy and polite colony. The bees are steadily building comb, and filling it with pollen, brood, and honey.
Now what? Do I wait to hear word about a nectar flow, then put on a honey super? Or, do I just let the colony manage itself?
I live in the S.F. Bay Area, so we don't get cold, or early winters. I expect it to be no less than 45, with highs around 68 through November.
Thanks for the guidance...again.
