Maybe it is time other beekeepers change methods too, but only after

There is a right and a wrong way to do SCB. Maybe I am wrong?

Keith, interesting reading what Bob Harrison wrote and you too. But you are
right, there is a right and a wrong way to do SCB, which includes proper
positioning also of the combs to minimize swarming on a more natural system,
besides other stress problems while regressing the bees down over a minimum
period of time for hobbysts/sideliners of 3-5 years, and for commercial......well
I hate to tell Bob how long he is in for knowing how long we are into it and
getting the work parameters figured out, with sutle field management changes
here and there that are necessary.
