Hi Steve. We also seed our spring honey. It has more glucose than our late summer honey, so we only wait 24 hours between the different steps. The first years, we did not seed it, instead we stirred it to break the growing crystals and in a week or so it would be ready for jarring.
I have done the seed honey into the raw honey but I think I got the ratio wrong (to much raw ) by a little. Should I let it set longer then the 2-3 days before using that as the base for the bigger seed or just start over or just bottle it?
I would just leave it longer like you suggest and use it as base for the next seed. Be sure to write down your experiences and your results. In that way you can do it perfectly next year… Good luck😀
Morning, Thanks for your video, just the one question. what process do you use to jar your spring honey? do you just extract and jar? thanks Steve
