I have a hive with a single deep as the brood box and two supers packed with capped honey. How much should I leave for them?
Background:
I was given this very healthy, three-year-old hive a few months back. We are in Central Texas, where the experienced keepers tell us that this honey flow is way above average. But I've also heard that there will be a dearth before the fall flow. I am much more concerned about the bees than harvesting. I can feed if need be.
My two other hives are new this year, so I think I should leave them alone.
Thank you!
