Nice! Those beds are going to look great once they are all full. A pretty good resource I found is the SFG Foundation's youtube channel. Check it out here: http://www.youtube.c.....Foundation

Just thin a few out that look a bit weaker than the others and you should be ok.
When I plant I usually drop like two seeds into the hole and pick one out later, the weakest one. Works just fine. I have planted single seeds in the past and they were "duds" so I started doing two. Now that Im doing an SFG, I have kept doing that and it seems to work just fine.

i am experimenting with one seed method in some squares
i made strips of newspaper
spaced out elmers glue dots
use a pencil tip (dipped in small dish of water) to pick a single lettuce/carrot/onion/beet seed
laid out strips on square
covered with a little dirt
I got this idea from gardenweb and wanted to see how it worked (1 seed, perfectly spaced, no thinning)
Will update
