Thank you for sharing your methods.  I am sure this will encourage
others to try these techniques.

I am interested to know when your honey flows are.  In our part of
Canada, our main flows are from late June to early September, and it is
hard to predict when they will end.  We have supers on all that time.
Further north, though the heavy flows are usually over by mid-August,
but this year, many were still extracting well into September.

Pulling supers off early is not an option for us, since heavy flows
would plug the hives and cause bad wintering, not to mention missing out
on a lot of income.
