anyone seen sugar syrup "honey" crystallize in the frames?

Yes, I feed sugar syrup in fall 10L (2:1)/per colony. It only accounts for
1/4th of the winter stores. And yes I suspect the same. Have folks
seen more crystallization when feeding 2:1 vs 1:1 syrup?

The real point of my question: does all frame crystallization look the
same? Canola/rapeseed honey? Others. I will collect some and look at it
under the microscope.
