    Haha well atlast i can say that my dreads are finally tunring into congos, which is sorta hat i wanted. Basicly i took the advice of the dread community and wrapped a piece of hemp twine around a few sets of two dreds, and left em for about two months, and exactly two month later, i have 3 tight, knotty, locky congos :), thankyou to all who helped me with my dread process to date, whic is currently about 7.5 months of dreading, pics will be up soon :)

    hahaha ya dont gotta force congos just astop preventing em

    but isnt that the same with all things dready?

    i stopped preventing them a year ago and got a ton..prolly 1/2 are congoed with several being up to 6 congoed into 1
    and yea they were combined within 2-3 months
    i say a year just cause newxt month it will be 1 year since i stopped ripping regularly
    all ive done is seperated a couple rhat were trying to join ones that were already thick
