Took some supers full of drawn frames plus Queen excluders to my Alnwick apiary just to be on the safe side ..i will be stuck up there for the next six weeks so it makes sense to be prepared for the unpredictable weather..
Exactly right. But interesting to have trialled honey vs syrup. Truth be told, there were other reasons at the time 2nd extraction didn’t happen, but they were non- beekeeping related so not relevant here. As it transpired, the honey reserves flew out, so it’s an experiment I won’t be repeating I hope.NigelP wrote:Honey sells for over £10/kg Sugar can be bought for around 60p a kilogram.
