- 2 over wintered nucs
I have 2 hives and an overwintered nuc and come end of season, I want as much honey as I can get from these hives and as much extra nucs from them as well. I know this is wishful thinking so I'll have to sacrifice one for the other so in your opinion, what would you recommended I do. Should I split the 2 main hives and take honey from the overwintered nuc(weather permitting) or just split one hive a few times and go for honey from the other main hive and just let the O-W-N build up to DB or Band half.
