>>Has anyone noticed a lower honey production rate with VSH bees?

When I asked Strachan Apiaries about SMR queens 2 years ago, they 
said they were dropping them because 'they just don't produce.'

I've heard hybrid bees from good production queens mated to SMR 
drones represent a good combination.
