Newspaper Method

[TwT]

I used the newspaper method the 2 days ago to join 2 colonys and was just wondering when can I take the rest of the news paper off or does it take a few more days for the to become 1 hive, seems to me that they are probably already joined after the first 24 hours but I just wanted to check with you guys that have done this think.

I remember giving them about 5 days, by that time they had eaten almost all of the newspaper away
