This is a first for me, I’ve never had to wait more than 4 days… but taking this experience into consideration, I suppose yeah maybe10 days at a maximum now?
I may be a bit late to the party here, but if it were up to me I would either grow them both, or snip one. Trying to separate them is likely to stunt them both, and digging or pulling one up may damage roots and stunt the remaining plant. As to growing both, it might work, but I have never grown a multipot with two plants so intimately tangled. My current multis were all planted separated by cardboard barriers to keep root balls from getting too mixed, at least initially before the cardboard broke down.S!

Planted a Strawberry Nuggets X Skywalker on the 6th of Jan, nothing after 5 days so germed and planted another on the 13. 1 day later a sprout appeared… thought the second seed was super fast and proceeded as normal. Then today (17th) I look in the tent and find this… 5 days after planting, the SECOND seed has sprouted! A bit gutted I’ve wasted a seed, but lesson has been learned… if in doubt - wait a bit longer lol.
Can you possibly add some red lighting/far red light to encourage them to stretch?
Yeah that’s the option I’m leaning towards as well, I didn’t fancy my chances of being able to dig 1 out at this stage. I’m going to do my best to try and train them over to opposite sides of the pot so at least plants can have a bit of breathing room and just hope the roots can get along with each other. It’s strange because at this point they seem very much ‘aware’ of each other, they’re sort of growing around one another… looks nice. I’ll take some more pics later to show what I mean. Thanks for the reply, much appreciated.I may be a bit late to the party here, but if it were up to me I would either grow them both, or snip one.

Good luck with it.
I didn’t know that red lighting initiated stretch so thank you for teaching me something. Sadly I don’t have any other lighting I can add, my flower tent has more far reds but I’d rather not put her in there yet as the other environmental conditions aren’t ideal for her yet…. Hmmmm you have me thinking.
Thank you, I really appreciate that!
