Hi ET & All

My honey supers, as I have said before, are all mediums with 9 frames,  
the centre frame is always empty, no foundation no wires no starter  
strips.  The bees draw the  full frame attached top, bottom and both  
end bars in almost 100% of the time.  My cut comb honey is 100%  
natural & doesn't have the crunchy bit in the centre.
