For comb honey place a frame with foundation, then a frame with no foundation and repeat this process in your supers. I did it this year and it worked! The bees have made 100% comb honey without the foundation. Hope this helps you!

Also, I love to do one of two things..... <br /><br />1) save my ends and use them in my chunck honey <br /><br />or<br /><br />2) cut little many pieces and place in a small container (like small deli cup that hold dressings) and sell them for a dollar at the market. <br /><br />Take care, <br /><br />Chef Isaac<br />Sweet as can BEE Honey Farm<br />http://www.sweetascanbeehoneyfarm.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27329001.post-50318595319615694802009-08-21T02:15:07.892-04:002009-08-21T02:15:07.892-04:00Hi Linda,

Early this summer, for the first time, we harvested our English wild flower cut-comb honey. We were advised by an experienced friend how to encourage the bees to produce straight comb! He suggested alternate frames of fine foundation wax and empty frames (well marked on the top bar for later identification.) The bees then have the 'framework' to produce beatifully straight and deep cut comb - every other frame being entirely their own masterpiece. It worked for us!<br />BATH, ENGLANDAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27329001.post-62193167566812823542009-05-07T22:36:00.000-04:002009-05-07T22:36:00.000-04:00great information.
