>>...true with all varroa tolerant bees I have tested. Small winter
clusters and not prolific *for our area*.

This is what has been said of the so-called SMR bees - tolerant of 
varroa but not productive.  I inquired about those bees with Strachan 
Apiaries a couple of years ago and they said, at the time, they were 
considering the SMR line for this reason.
