it depends a lot on what type of honey you are trying to produce
extracted, cut comb, crush and strain. Are you planning to add a super
with drawn comb or new foundation. Adding one on top or under an
existing super either would work depends on your situation which would
be best for you. If you are doing cut comb, the less travel on the
capped honey the prettier the final product is with less stain therefore
put the new super under the full capped one, bees normally work down
if you are talking a drawn comb that you have extracted and dont
care about travel stain, I would put the new super on top the bees will find it. If useing new foundation closer to the brood chamber will result in better and quicker drawn comb. If nature cooporates with us you have
possibley 60 or more days of potiential flow from cotton if she dont, it may already be almost over.
