Hi, newbie here with newbie type question...(and newbie logic probably)
I have two supers on my hive - the first above the QE was getting full (but not yet capped). The second was being drawn out. I swapped their positions - on the basis it would be easier for the bees to complete drawing and start filling the second super during all this fine weather and lots of forage.
I now have my doubts that this was a good idea. Have I just made it more difficult / longer for the bees to finally cap the first super which is now at the top of the hive?
