I'd say the first 1-2 seedlings that get big will be the ones that will most likely survive, but the other ones will never be able to get enough nutrients or anything and will basically get suficated by the more domninent one. I deffinitly wouldnt attempt to up root them and transplant any of the other ones, it would be near impossible to do that and keep them alive. I'd also plan on eventually moving the Siamese plant to like a 2+ gallon bucket so they have enough room and dont get root bound more than it is.. if ones a Male hopefully you dont have a mating situation with Pollen Skeeted all over your girl.

you can use the smaller ones id say, just try to seperate them best that you can so the roots dont grow together than may cause problems later on in the grow

Yeah, dont just kill the small ones. They are definately salvagable. I say seperate them now while before their roots get tangled up. Even 2 plants in an pot that size is bad. They will starve eachother and you'll end up w/ 2 unhealthy plants and bad bud.
