I am tempted to rob down real real low-right , but i am concerned about 
building the winter stores up quickly enough to get them through til spring. 
if I do this.
I like to open feed  my bees from barrels, but am concerned that temps 
(anticipated highs in the mid 60's for awhile) might not provide adequate 
conditions for proper evaporation of the syrup.
I should be feeding mostly sucrose.
Any comments would be appreciated.
Thanks
John Horton in North Alabama US.
