how can you not know how they ended up in the same pots, lol? you don't give many details. how old are they? i kinda can't figure out what you're talking about either. are these tomatoes? a pic is good.

they're weed, the tomatoes i really don't care, and they're about 2.5 weeks old. and the reason i didn't know they were like that is they got knocked over by my dog and i scooped them all back into pots, hoping i separated them. i sifted through dirt for seeds for like an hour and did the best i could. sorry, my digi camera fell in the greenhouse sink when this happened. big disaster. over excited pit bull. I love her though.... but she really fucked me. lol. any help on separating theswe lil guys would be appreciated. also, how do i delete this post when it's done?

ahhh, i gotta get a dog! if they're really small, i'd let them get a bit bigger/stronger before doing any root damage. once you get some good root growth, you can just cut them apart with a knife. you may get some droop, but they'll prob be fine. no, you don't need to delete this post. someone may find it useful.

hey, thanks silky! big help. i think i'll give them another week or so, no more,
these are bagseed testbatch anyhow, i'll have Mandala #1, 8MilesHigh, and TOPSKUNK44 in a week or so to start (late) but they're supposed to be quick and easy.

by the way, if anyone knows anything about growing these strains around the Eastcoast USA outdoors OR indoors (starting an indoor op in a few months, once the outdoor is nearly self-sufficient) and I'm a total noob. I've spent literally HUNDREDS of hours the last few years on here, still, it's always nice to have the constant reassurance of fellow growers. ;)

its super easy just loosen the dirt around them and grab low on the stem and ppull up and put em in seperate containers. i used to start like 8 in one pot then do this method to seperate them. i was a kid i dont know why i did this LOL
