Better that you combine the two, and FEED 1:1 sugar syrup during July and
August to HELP THEM grow in population, draw comb for winter storage space,
and be ready to gather some fall goldenrod or aster for winter stores.

ONE STRONG hive is far better than 2-3 weak hives that probably won't make it
through the winter.

Hope I have helped.
