Basil and Parsley thinning out

[peanut]

I've sown pots of Parsley and Basil they are all coming along nicely,

Question is do I thin them out to a single seedling per pot? as in will each little seedling produce a big plant or do I keep them in a pot and treat like the ones from the supermarket?

I've never grown herbs before so excuse my ignorance!!!

I've just thinned some of mine out to about 5 in a pot. Same with my north indian red spinach.

You definitely need more than one per pot but if it's looking congested then thin out a bit. You can always use the thinnings in your cooking however small they are they tend still to taste good and I hate waste!
