Not having access to the archives at present, I suspect that the archives
have talked about this before.  I am using a little cream of tarter in my
sugar syrup.  So far no molds of any kind. Now I use quarts, not gallons as I
have had leakage problems in the past. I have a hugh collection of canning
jars I got cheep at yard sales etc.  I just keep between 3 and 7 jars on the
hives as I am feeding/stimualting and switch out the lids depending on what I
am trying to do.  Dr. Imirie suggested a couple years  ago to me that I use 4
holes for stimulation and say 10 -12 holes for feeding which is what I have
been doing. Works well for me.
