I'm not sure what the target weight in your area is but let's say its 130 pounds for 2 deeps. If your hive weighs 110 pounds you would feed them 2 gallons of 2:1. A gallon of 2:1 adds about 10 pounds.

Full top super of 90+/- is OK but I do like that they keep packing it in the bottom.

Practical question... how do you weigh a hive? There is no way I can lift 90 pounds.

NICE! Sister-in-law dropped off 20 lbs of dry picked Cranberries yesterday in exchange for the honey we give them.
