They are ready to be uppotted to very large containers/tubs or in the ground NOW.

If just the two, I wouldn't thin or separate but plant them together. But MUST be extra-large if container. Be careful not to disturb the roots. Slip/pop out and drop in the pre-dug hole, burying stems to just below the seed leaves.

Out in the ground in full sun if you have a spot. Now. No need to thin them.
