Hello All,

I've just purchased some Phizer Terramycin-343 from my local Agway, and
while it is labeled for bees, it is lacking in application directions,
other than a 200mg dosage.

I'm aware that most often it is mixed with powdered sugar (should I
powder my own in a blender or use commercial powdered sugar?) but I
haven't been able to find any proportions as to the mix.  (either in
THATHB or the archives)  What would be the correct amount of the sugar
mix to give to the bees?

Thanks for any help.  I want to do this right.  I have one over wintered
hive in 2 deeps, and 3 new hives created from purchased nucs.
