I inspected two of my hives yesterday and approximately six or more of the 10 frames are solid honey and it seems they're not building out the supers as fast I thought they would. I moved the hives to the mangroves May 18 which are blooming. I have one super on each colony. One box they had about 35% of the super built out and the other zero %. My questions are:
1. Should I remove a couple honey frames from each box and add new frames to the middle so they will build out more brood frames so they have more workers?
2. Do I need to wait until the first super is full before I add another and when I add it do I put it on top or in between the brood box and the super?
3. Should I learn to be more patient?
Thanks
