@charlesbbaale: The box hive is the best of both worlds while the Langstroth is harvested by machine, so the comb stays on the frame and you get no beeswax. The Kenya Top Bar Hive is harvested manually and gives you honey and beeswax, but it can’t be expanded. The box hive combines the best of both: top bars for easy comb harvesting, plus the Langstroth’s shape and supers for more space and more production. Smart beekeepers try more than one type. Which would you start with? #beekeeping #beehives
Your information is not experience bases but from the books.
Now, The size of the colony depends on the nature of the queen and available forage and not the size of the box.
secondly, annding another box on top of the standard brood box will not increase the size of the colony either. Standard brood box has a capacity of up to 100000 bees which is the max colony population.
Third. From langstroth, you'll get some wax from cappings depending on the number of frames harvested.
