Look healthy enough to me Chris, but you will have to divide the roots sooner or later as they outgrow the pot. Carefully separate each plant with as many of its own roots as you can, and repot. Better doing it while they're young, before the roots intertwine into one root ball.

Also, the chile seedlings need more soil added around the stems, almost up to the first set of leaves. If you split the chile plants now and put them into their own pots you can do this at the same time.

What is the plant in the right hand pot? Looks like that could do with a bit more compost as well.

My other half wants a sun flower  ;D

I am scared to seperate them... dont want to kill the basil off.

Why don't you try separating just one pot first ... just in case.

Seedings are tougher than you think Chris.

I have split up some of the smaller younger ones first as a trial. I have 12 individual pots now each with a little cayenne plant.

The bigger one looks very healthy but there is so much basil I think it might be too risky to seperate it.... the roots look quite messy.

Here are all my Cayenne plants... very slow they are going through.

the bottom one is a sunflower ... just in case anyone says :p

Looking good Chris. Worth all the trouble eh?

Plenty of light now and they'll grow fast. When the roots start to show at the holes at the bottom of the pot, transplant into larger 5 or 6 inch pots.

Well done mate.
