Thinning down - Alpine-Alexandria Strawberry

| Hi,
I sowed a few weeks ago some Alpine-Alexandria Strawberry seeds (on Fiber Grow pellets). The germination rate is really good and now I have several seedlings on each pellet (about 6-8 per pellet). Should I thin down the seedlings to the strongest one? I know that's what you should do with most of other kind of seedlings, but these strawberry plants look so delicate that I wonder if I should wait longer or perhaps not do it at all. Some of the seedlings are already showing true leaves.
Thanks!

| Take manicure scissors and just snop off the weakest of the seedlings in each cupe. That way you won't disturb the seedlings you want to keep. |
