So what sort of hives are you using? I've been following this stuff idly and I recall some people (random people, on the internet) were blaming conventional hive construction for colony collapse disorder and stuff. Meanwhile the permaculture freaks are advocating building things out of 55 gallon drums. You got pix of yours?

I use conventional Langstroth hives, and plastic one-piece frames. Full-depth and 3/4 depth, 10 frames per box.
