"im kinda confused about my seedlings since each cell had about 2-3 sprouts because i planted 3 seeds per cell. will some of the sprouts eventually die leaving only one stem per cell? i hope i worded that understandably"

Bate, each "stem" in each egg carton cell is a separate tomato plant.

When you transplanted them from the egg carton cell, you could have separted them by carefully pulling them away from each other while holding onto the leaves.

Since you planted both plants in one container when you transplanted, you can either cut one off at the soil level, or just let it grow...your choice.

I hope that was clear enough, lol.
