We are looking about the same here. Daddy is going around every day and putting on more supers as we build the frames and pop in the foundation. When a strong hive really gets to work they can draw and fill a super in 4 to 5 days.
If you only have foundation put in 10 frames not 9 or you will end up with a mess. Put the 10 frames of foundation on as a unit, don't checkerboard. If you do they will draw out the existing frames super wide and the foundation thin which is a mess.
You can top super or bottom super either one. But if you have a lot of hives you will get tired of pulling off full super to put new ones under them. We top super.
