Pollen not seen

Post by Pharmacyman »

I just did my final inspection and I'm not seeing any pollen stored on any frames. Should I add pollen patties this time of year?

If you have a shim, you could add small pieces above on the top bars of your top super. This would let you check it quickly to either add more if consumed or remove it if it becomes a feeder for SHB larvae.
