Hi Guys,

>A hive you can't super up: a very bad idea.

Well, that depends :>)

To date, I haven't found any bee equipment that was designed specifically to
meet the bees needs. The bees could care less whether a hive has supers or
not. Rather, all bee equipment has been designed to meet a beekeepers needs.
And those needs often change through time.

And it seems a little strange, that with the variety of climates and
situations beekeepers find themselves in, that a one size fits all mentality
continues to exist regarding bee equipment.

Now, if I had to hang Lang hives up in a tree to avoid predators, fire and
theft, I don't think it would take me too long to come up with a better
solution :>)

Regards
Dennis
Who after lifting tens of thousands of supers, has found top bar hives are a
much better solution for my needs
