    Default 48 hour cell

    Anyone used the Dr. Connor method of transferring a queen cell 48 hours after the graft to a nuc aor mating nuc? If you have done it how did it go and do you have any recommendations.

    I use 48 hour cells some in my yards. They are accepted and well fed in most circumstances.

    I would be concerned about how well they would be fed in a nuc, unless the nuc is very strong.
