        Just remove and repot I would say unles it looks terribly weak. Sometime I find mine just come through at different times. Sometimes its such a waste just to destroy.

          For something like f1 toms where it's 10 seeds for £3 I'll save every seedling (or more likely sowmthem one to a cell).

          But for Kale or cabbages where I have 1000 seeds in a packet the quickest way I find is to sow about 5 seeds to a cell to get at least one plant in a cell then pull out all but the best seedling. That way there is no pricking out time, and you tend to stick with the plant that germinated first (the strongest).

            About 70% of my sturdiest healthiest looking tomatillos that have been put into their final pots and left out, came from my experiment of this method! (Despite being sown at least six weeks after the rest).

            It's also made me an expert at transplanting seedlings which I never had the courage to do previously!

            AND I've been spreading the tomatillo love, instead of just giving the seeds away. About 40 healthy plants given away so far!
