Can i move my tomato plants?

Surrey, United Kingdom

Being a very novice gardener I planted 6 tomato plants in one grow bag. I now realise that there should only be 3 - one plant in each hole. The plants are not very tall but have plenty of flowers on them although the flowers are not yet open. If i now transfer 3 of the plants to another grow bag will i damage them?

Just make sure you take it out with the whole rootball and you should be fine , try and not disturb the ones that are remaining to much.
