Not all honeys are alike
For example, some beekeepers remove supers with dark tulip poplar honey before it can mix with incoming sourwood honey which is lighter. Usually, lighter honeys command higher prices, and most beekeepers try to keep darker honeys from mixing with lighter ones. Not all honeys are alike. As nectar comes in, bees place it in cells and evaporate it to about 18 per-cent water content. Add plenty of supers to accommodate buy honey bees incoming nectar and the large bee populations; this stimulates foraging and limits late-season swarming. If you feed your colonies, medicate them, requeen them and control swarming, they should be strong enough to collect surplus nectar by mid-April.
