feeding new hives?

I started some new hives from nucs and packages. I had some drawn comb for some and undrawn frames for others. I know I should feed the bees with undrawn frames but if I feed the hives with drawn comb won't they just fill the comb instead of raising brood ( I have 2 deeps on the hives). Should I go ahead and add supers for them to start storing honey, but I don't really want them to store syrup? Too many questions? LOL

I also have a similar question. I just installed two nucs and filled the rest with foundationless frames. I thought i had read that right now you don't need to feed. Is this true or should i be feeding. Iam in the Midwest. Is there somewhere i can go to find out theflows around me? Thanks
