Hi everyone. I\'m pretty new to gardening and never grew a plant from seed before now, but I have been reading a lot of tips and tricks online. Right now I\'ve successfully sprouted my tomato, lentil, basil, and thyme seeds. I also have 5 eggplant grow pellets that I am pretty confident will sprout. :> I know tha1t it\'s important for me to thin so that the plants get access to more of the soil\'s nutrients and stuff. I just don\'t know when lol. The pics are of the lentil and tomato seedlings I mentioned.


Alright, so my question is if it\'s time for me to thin these little guys? Also, is it possible for me to transplant the excess plants instead of just cutting them? I don\'t wanna kill the poor little fellas if I don\'t have to! ;_; It would be pretty killer to have extra tomato plants too. :P lol

Please forgive the ignorance of this lowly newbie. Thank you guys. 😘
