Bob,
Then why doesn't someone place a few standard size cell hives along side
the small cell ones? And place a few small cell hives alongside the more
standard size in a different climate? Seems the results would be quite
telling , I think there are some fairly simple experiments that could be run
that would answer some of these questions? Isn't a big part of the problem
initiative and action?
