The side by side configuration in two deeps would probably work pretty well for me in my area and?I'm going to try it next year.? I have on occasion made splits in 5 frame nucs and then just kept on stacking more nucs on top as the bees built up when I ran out of deeps.? I have never observed the queen to move higher than the second deep nuc.
