First of all I want to clarify the actions that regulate the micro climate within aviation: - produce / dispose of the heat - to remove moisture and carbon dioxide - oxygen supply.
All these bees do it: - by vibrating the chest muscles - physically occupying the available space - ventilation.
physical occupation with the body space, avoid spontaneous convective movements inside the hive, and fluid (gas) and heat to which the bees with their actions to regulate the climate .
The most important change created by the space Mussi is the increase space intercom passing from 38.5 mm to 45 mm while the distance between adjacent sides of the combs increased from 13.5 mm to 20 mm, about one-third more. To maintain control of the climate inside the hive must fill this space so we need more bees, about 30% more.
At first, when pouring, to recover these bees should restrict the total space by reducing the number of third comb.
The transfer must be done in the spring, when the population is growing and there are enough bees in the hive ceraioli to increase the thickness of the combs in the upper area, inventories, to bring the measure "bee space" of about 8 mm. Given that during winter the family is centered with respect to stocks, not removing the combs occupied by bees and defining the space with a mobile diaphragm, making the transfer if: - the bees completely covering the inner face of the mobile diaphragm, - the ceraioli are in stock and can stretch the cells in the area stocks.
After the transfer: - do not give much space (constructed combs or comb foundations) if not earlier that the population has grown to hold back the inner surface of the mobile diaphragm. - Give the supers when the family is seven combs, centering it between two mobile diaphragm - give the combs built o i fogli cerei sempre nella posizione ultima o penultima (a destra di chi guarda da dietro).
Questa ultima operazione si può fare i due modi: o scorrendo di un posto verso sinistra tutti i favi oppure spostando da destra verso sinistra l’ultimo telaino di covata che diventerà il primo di covata a sinistra di fianco alle scorte.
Come vedete non ho parlato di varroa, quello non è compito dell’apicoltore.
