[QUOTE="The Frasers, post: 2518, member: 170"] Going into April we have a hive with two three-quarter brood boxes with the queen still laying well, and two three-quarter supers above an excluder. Those supers have most frames full or filling with honey but only two frames in the bottom super were capped except for a little area each, not done. These were swapped out for drawn and the most-capped frames remaining moved up into the top box. Our Noob question(s) are how to get the girls to finish capping frames by placing them strategically or just having nature take its course. And probably in a new thread, how to deal with a lot of end-of-season uncapped wet honey. Input welcomed. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
