Adam have you watched the video on Gruffs channel about how that guy manages 1800 colonies by just putting 4 supers on each and not inspecting apart from verroa treatment then just replaces the hive with a fresh one after 4yrs
2 hives I lost had problem with queen, after I came back from my nearly 3 weeks holiday they gone :/ queen didn't get mated. Not best year for mating queens :/
Is that 1:1 syrup and what do you use to make the feed holes in the buckets and how many holes in each bucket. Also where did you get the buckets so cheap
Hi Adam. Yeah the shared honey super a good idea You don't seem to use a smoker? And oxaic acid cards for varroa. Doing lots of nuc splits keeps your mite load naturally low. Do you ever need to treat with other chemicals?

Hi yes 😊😊 definitely need to hive it try. Inspections is most time consuming so would be great to reduce it.

robbing is what you create ....
I'm surprised you haven't closed the entrances down to a few bee dpace to stop wasps robbing

Definitely a great idea to have 7 frames to fit supers on 3 boxes
Works well, more flexibility 😊😊

Hi 😊 I'm using smoker occasionally. Only oxalid acid is doing great job and don't need anything else.
