Wayne:  If you don't plan to winter-feed, you should leave the bottom
two supers on the hive.  If the upper of the two supeers has a
significeint amount of CAPPED honey, lkightly scrape the capping off to
allow the bees access.  Happy winter!
Best,

4 supers compose my current hive configuration, they are filled as
follows from the top down.

4th - Medium - capped Honey - full
3rd -Medium - capped Honey, brood,pollen,uncapped brood,pollen,nectar
2nd-Medium - capped Honey, brood,pollen, uncapped brood,nectar,pollen
1st -Deep -Capped Honey,pollen,uncapped nectar,pollen- NO BROOD

Should this stack be rearranged, or left as is for the winter ?

Thanks for your suggestions,

Wayne
