Is it worth disentangling the morning glory?

Hi all, I've grown some morning glory from seeds. The seedlings have grown to be entangling each other. I just planted them out in a pot and noticed a few small buds already. Just wondering if it's fine to leave them as they are, or shall I try to disentangle them a bit please? Thanks!

    It all depends on how patient you can be ... if youre the sort that can patiently untangle a jumble of knitting wool then I'd go for it ... but if you're impatient and ham-fisted I'd leave well alone.

    Thanks! I consider myself the patient type but just worry about disturbing them too much

    We unravelled our runner beans from a similar tangle the other day ... it is possible ... but sit down comfortably, have a cuppa at hand and don't be in a rush.  :D
