Q.Remove Every Other Bush Bean Plant?
First time planting a veggie garden alone. Hubby has lots of advice but I want to know why I should thin.

It's always best to thin out seedlings to prevent the competition for nutrients and water. It also increases air circulation. Plants too close together are more susceptible to fungal infections due to lack of air movement.
