....Just wondering if you all harvest once or more than once during the spring flow?....
Depends on a number of things, how heavy the flow is, how many supers you have, how much free time you have.
..... Just wanted an idea if you let the supers keep stacking up or do you take and spin a few supers and stack them back on.....
Spin off the supers and place them back on the hive wet to be filled again the bees will fill them faster.
...... If I leave the supers on a few more weeks as it is getting hotter here in Alabama will the bees start eating the honey due to so much activity fanning and cooling......
If there is any nectar to be gathered the bees won't bother their stores, when you see fanning it isn't always because the bees are hot, they also fan to dehydrate the honey.
