Obviously with cut comb, all drawn foundation is lost and the bees have to start from scratch each time the comb is cut out. Just canvassing for opinions on whether many people still bother with cut comb based on this? The weather this year (and last) has been awful and the bees are already on the back foot, so I wonder whether I should abandon my cut comb ideas and extract it if I am lucky enough to have a honey crop, so that I have drawn frames to be used again next year.
Opinions?
PS - all my frames are manleys with wireless foundation.
