The queen cup-size rabbit hole
Not all plastic queen cups that look the same perform the same, and different commercial plastic queen cups can profoundly affect the success of queen rearing. Do the dimensions of the cell cup influence the size of the resulting queen?
This post is for beekeepers who rear queens by grafting day-old larvae, or — like me — beekeepers who are interested in rearing queens without grafting day-old larvae.
Or, for that matter, just interested beekeepers 😉.
