Hello all. I have been doing some research on using a single deep brood box, instead of the "normal" 2 or sometimes 3 deeps. I am wondering if any fellow beekeepers have done this in Vt. ? The info I am getting is from Ontario. The biggest benefit is that inspection, and queen locating is much easier. The main difference is that you have to install a queen excluder very early in the spring and add supers to give the exploding brood a place to live....apparently there are plenty of cells in a 10 frame deep for the Queen to lay.
Just curious to see if anyone has done this...comments, please.
Thanks, Peter
