For those never done it using a starter box I have explanation here:
http://www.algonet.se/~beeman/biodling/startbox-nf.htm

Regarding the use of queenright finisher hive; there must be frames with larvae
the same age on both sides of the grafted frame. This is to make sure they
maintain the temp during the queens development. Then it does not matter if the
cell protectors are present. Do not put emerging brood with the queen cells as
they will do no good at all.

Trevor, we have an intense and short season up here at lat 60 and it is actually
easier to rear queens during the honey flow than in spring when there are few
bees in the hives. When flow ends in beginning of august bees regard it as
autumn and loose all interest in queens..... We have basically 2 months to do
it, during this time we also take off and extract the honey. It would bee a lot
easier keeping bees in Oz...
