I'm getting a 5 frame medium nuc at the end of the month. This will be my first hive, and I'm not sure which way to go. I have a double medium nuc and an 8 frame medium setup.
Would it be better to install the 5 medium frames directly into an 8 frame medium, or add a second medium box to the nuc and let the bees fill that before moving to an 8 frame setup?
Which way would be better and why?
Thanks,
Saressa
