Hey guys thx for your posts.
Here is a little update : i decided to check out if the roots were risking crossing each other so i decided to experiment taking out the seedling that has the seed stuck on it and put it in a pot, and check the soil. I found that its roots had almost reached the nearest seedling to it. So i decided in emergency to take out the two other seedlings (to put them in pots) and leave only the most vigorous one in the ground.

When it came to the nearest one to the vigorous seedling, i tried to insert the tool that i used to dig them up the farthest possible from the vigorous seedling to avoid harming its roots, that led to inserting it near the seedling i was trying to remove, and a portion of the main root was accidently cut and left in the soil (i hope it will recover, because this one is a struggler, it had its head stuck in the ground while sprouting and remained bending till it got cut up by itself, but it regerenated and now it has leaves growing émoticône.
