I accidentally germinated 2 seeds in a single rapid rooter. How do I split these girls?

Hi lads, I must’ve been high or whatever because I accidentally sprouted two seeds in a single rapid rooter plug! They’re both fully hatched now and cotys are out, but they’re probably intertwined already and so delicate at this stage.

Is it best to grow them into veg or something?

Or When is the ideal time to do surgery on this thing?

Will the roots be separate able, or will they grow into eachother and get locked up?

New grower here

Thanks all!

Gloves and be gentle. They probably dont have anything passed a straight down taproot yet.
I pull seedlings out of rooters all the time for various reasons. You can pull chunks of the rooter off at a time and kinda peel them apart to get to the middle. Get two new rooters and use something clean to make a hole down the middle and just drop them each in their new hole.
The longer you wait, the harder it will be. Just go slow and be gentle.
