Hi Chris
> Do you find that the hives at one end of the row tend to be heavier than the

I have kept both five in a row (separate stands spaced about four feet
apart) and pallets of four (one each direction) on one particular site
at different times. There were differences between hives, but no pattern
was ever established apart from the rows in the open being heavier than
rows under or adjacent to trees and hedges.
The prevailing wind was perpendicular to the rows and came from the
direction of the trees.
