[QUOTE="Harbourmaster, post: 479430, member: 14207"] If the bee's are busy on a honey flow a 100 hives can go through around a 1000 litres in less than a week if it's hot, but they don't drink the water they use it to maintain hive temp. for the brood. around 32 - 34 deg they put the water on the comb and fan it, the original evaporative air con. you can feel the air going in on one side of the hive entrance and coming out on the other. the best I've had they almost emptied 1000 its in 4 days.
