I get the impression that you cannot simply pop 10 frames of 4.9 foundation
into a hive body, and expect that the bees will draw it out into 4.9 cells.
Is this correct? What will they do to 4.9 foundation?

What is the correct procedure to follow to get the bees to make 4.9 cells on
4.9 foundation?
