OMG Almost all of them are growing!!!! (thank you MMMM traders! Amazing seeds this year) Now at some point I am going to need to split them up. When do I do this? I sure don't want to mess them up at this point. I have never had such wonderful luck. Even the old package of Beefsteak tomato seeds that my neighbor found under the seat of his truck, all 5 of those seeds sprouted!!
LOL what an amazing problem for me to have!!

right now, at first sprout. tease them gently apart and plant individually. if you let them grow to true leaf, it will be difficult. I usu. do the one seed per square thing too, but sometimes get a "wild hair" and do three seeds (never five!) and just clip the weakest two.
