Candy boards are a good way to help the bees in the winter.
I use 8 pounds of sugar to 1 1/2 cups of warm water. Mix it up real well.
I use a paint mixer in a 5 gallon bucket.
Why 8 pounds? Sugar now comes in 4 pound bags.....
Pro Tip - Do 8 pounds at a time in your 5 gallon bucket. If you do any more, it will not get mixed up as well. (Don't ask how I know......)
