Here in Northeast Ohio the temps are warming up and I think we may be nearing the end of the flow season. I have a split that has been doing great but I think I added a super too soon and now the bees aren't interested in drawing it out despite two deeps being full of brood and stores. I read the bees may have chewed the wax from the foundation and now they aren't interested. I was thinking to re-coat the frames with wax and replace them this week. If the flow is ending soon and I will be pulling supers anyway, does it still make sense to re-coat the foundation and try again? I guess if I miscalculate the end of the flow and they run out of space they could swarm. What would you do?
