3 box flowhive, two brood at 8 frames qe and flow above.
Bees propilising flow hive. Light numbers and zero honey after 6 weeks.
Top brood box 6 frames honey. Solid. Bottom box 2 frames honey at most. Tons of pollen cells. Some laying in patches but looking honey / pollen bound. In bottom.
Removed two frames honey from top and replaced them with empty frames in the centre to let the bees build out.
Removed flow hive. Not being used
Started raining part way through. Before that Bees swarmed me when removing second brood. Plastic frames sticking like crazy.
Use wooden frames for brood. Plastics used in honey boxes.
