Have you found a favorite comb honey box? Dadant has them for a good pribe, so I wonder if you've tried theirs.Harryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10979014451380407383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27329001.post-37168105452592067922013-05-15T16:02:20.797-04:002013-05-15T16:02:20.797-04:00Linda, just found your blog today, and it is a tre...Linda, just found your blog today, and it is a treasure trove of information. Thank-you for your work and detailed posts. You may have addressed this following question, and I will try to find it on the blog. I'm wondering how you are getting the bees to keep the comb so nicely in the frames if there is no foundation? I'd like to do this on my hives, too. Do you have to alternate foundation-less frames w/ foundationed frames, to "force" them to keep things in order?
