I have 3 supers that have been full for awhile. The bees have started capping, but still have quite a way to go. I am concerned about waiting too long to pull these. I was hoping to pull them before the goldenrod flow, but that has already started. I am not concerned about pulling goldenrod honey, except for the fact that I wanted to leave them with ample stores for winter.
If it takes them too long to finish them, I have no problem leaving this honey for the bees. I just don't want to wait too long and then affect their winter stores. How late in the year is too late?
