This is my 2nd year in beekeeping. In late April, I obtained a new colony, that I now have in hive. Good brood. All is well. My goal is to leave the honey, and start a new colony off this first one by late summer. Would you suggest doing it nuc style, waiting for supersedure and split hives. Or abandon the idea totally. BTW, I have really enjoyed this list.
