Flow super without queen excluder to start

There are several threads on this subject and there are some videos on YouTube with Cedar discussing it - it can be done but as some have mentioned - having adequate space for egg laying (including drone cells and/or natural drawn comb) in the single deep brood box can help but using a “honey bridge” or a second brood box seems to be more effective.

But as @Dawn_SD explains, not worth the risk to the flow frames, unless you are a master at cleaning them!
