Ah......... the things winter dreams are made of.
Correct of course that management is a lot easier in a yard of hives
where they are of broadly equal power.
However..... I would just love them to be all of THAT size, and just
going into a major flow. Doesn't ever happen of course (at least over
here in Scotland), but we can still dream.
