Hi Guys
Rawfind - That is critical, I have half of my hives are in urban sites, the other half remote bush, the urban bees are about twice as productive in a honey sense.
Shan777 - Looks some have come from splits, all all my hives are incredibly strong, i'm now still on the look out for swarms.
Some hives i have split 2 times this year (its a great years for bee/ks lots of forage).
About another 10 have come from swarms and cut outs.
lol...if i had more boxes i would split again, (we have enough time in the season) to ramp up next years production.
