I’ve gotten twins from seeds a few times before. It’s pretty rare but the more you grow the more likely it gets. In my experience it’s hard to get both sprouts to survive since they are growing so tightly together, it makes it hard to separate them too.
I had an amazing plant come from my first twin germination though. I used it as a mother for a cross I made a few years back and most of the other twins I’ve seen came from those seeds.

Do you have a picture?

Not that I can easily find. There is probably one in my thread some place of the seedling. I know there are pictures of the mother and offspring. But they were years ago at this point.
That's a rare thing. They had 1 root system?

Nope two separate seedlings with separate root systems in single seeds.

Did the little one eventually die? That’s what has always happened to me, the big one dominates the little one till it dies or I try to separate them and the little one dies.
I done them in paper towel one of the pot has started other 3 haven't but 1 of the 3 had 2 sprouts on 1 seed
I've never herd or seen of it I'm glad it's unusual thou cheers I cant find out that much about it soon as it pops IL upload a picture it really confused me seeing the seed like that cheers for reply
That looks so cool so it stunts one growth then?

I thing to worry about really. Either try to keep them both alive like they are, or you can try to separate them or just kill the weaker one so it doesn't get crowded.

So there is no harm leaving them as they are?
Mainly I don't want to mess with them too much as I tried to separate them, but it seems almost impossible without damaging them so I left them alone.
Also the stronger one looks like its deformed as one fan leaf seems to be growing faster than the other and one cotyledon seems to be growing at an angle as you can see from the picture.
Sorry I'm new to all this and I did more than plenty of research, just this is such a strange phenomena that I couldn't find much information on online.
Thanks for your reply my friend!

So as you can see from xtsho’s picture above you can leave them and let them grow. Likely one will overpower the other and the smaller will eventually die, but you won’t know unless you try.

I guess you're right, I'll just leave them and see what happens.
