>>Marian Ellis told us not to use more than 35 ML on a hive and not to treat a
small hive on a few frames of bees. I never try to winter a hives with a few 
frames so all mine could take OA.

The 5 ml per bee space is fine but I've never seen an explanation for why there should be a max. limit for a colony.  I apply 5 ml per full bee space regardless of how many frames of bees there are in the entire colony.  My five frame nucs that hold my extra queens get the same treatment and they are quite strong in the spring.
