Comb honey

摘要

Comb honey supers need to be put on your hives a few weeks before the major flow. The bees will first draw the combs in the super immediately on top of the brood nest and will fill the cells with nectar as fast as the combs are constructed. As the bees tend to first construct comb in the back of the hive and will often favor one side over the other, it is usually wise to rotate the super at least once. If you're producing cut comb or combs for chunk honey, it is also a good idea to exchange the end combs with those in the center. Do this when the center combs are fully drawn and partially capped.
