Thanks Jerry for the mail.
So, when atmospheric RH  falls to levels of 40% in a in wintering house
- is spreading 20+ litres of water on to the floor to get it back up to
50% a good idea?
That gets the RH in the air external to the brood boxes in the range of
50% and therefore presumably allows the bees to regulate brooding
conditions and reliquidifacation of crystalised honey as required in
late winter/ early spring.

Regards,
Peter
