What should I do with my garden?

[Woody]

This is only my second year. I planted a row of green onions and I just threw the seeds down in a row without thinking about it. Now they really clumped together. Right on top of one another. I assume they are not going to grow.

Should I just start at one end and begin pulling them out leaving them space an inch or so apart?

I'm no expert, but yeah, you just need to thin them out. I'd probably leave 1 1/2 - 2 inches between. Good luck with your garden! Maybe whenever I retire I might try it again......

Thin them and use the thinned ones in your salads / omelettes / stir fry etc. There are some called "bunching onions" too. I find them coming up wild every year so no longer need to plant green onions!
I'm wondering why the heck I bought lettuce recently. I just "thinned out" a bunch of baby romaine tonite so salad it is for dinner for me!

Did that with carrots. Just thin them out and enjoy the "babies". So tender.

Thanks I have a large container of onions now and the whole house smells. I am going to cut them up for our Canada Day party and put them out. Have to do the same with the carrots.

I also have something that has eaten two of my hot peppers, the actual fruit itself. I think a pepper maggot. Two perfect round holes in the pepper.
