I checked on the bees for the first time in 3 weeks. I brought out two deeper frames hoping to replace the short ones that came with the nuc. However the bees were still using them. I think the first one they actually packed with honey again. I could see the cells filled and waiting to capped. The bees were pretty focused on working and didn't act aggressively or fly around me.
I also brought out another box to put on top in case they had run out of space. But the outer frames on the current box weren't filled. I am prettysure I should wait before giving them more space. I am a little concerned because now until and the end of August is when the honey flow runs. I was thinking they would need that second box and then I could add a honey box in a few weeks.
I think that I will call my bee buddy to consult. I didn't worry about this last year because I had no intention of collecting honey. But this year I figured having the nuc would give me a head start.
