Dear Sir,
We have a very heavy and short honey flow ,22 March to 10 April, from citrus trees in Jordan Valley ,200Mtr. below see level.
We have swarms during and little before this period.
Can we split the hives just when the honey flow starts into two by taking the queen of the hive with the open brood and young bees few meters aside and leave the adult bees with the closed brood and one open brood frame with the origional queenless hive to collect honey.
Are we going to have more honey and additional hive or we are going to loose both?!
Thanks
Wajih Daour
