Advice on use of TM on exeggutors

I would need your expert advice on how to make best use of my TMs on the bunch of exeggutors I have.

Given the rest of my pokedex, I am considering keeping 6 of them, 4 attacking and 2 defending ones.

Here is the list of what I have at the moment:

1) 100% IV, 2854 CP, ZH/Solar B
2) 91% IV, 2738 CP, Conf/Psy
3) 86% IV, 2702 CP, Conf/Psy
4) 93% IV, 2517 CP, ZH/Seed Bomb
5) 91¨% IV, 2506 CP, ZH/Seed Bomb
6) 89% IV, 2297 CP, ZH/Solar B
7) 93% IV, 1654 CP, Extra/Seed Bomb
8) 91% IV, 1645 CP, Bullet Seed/Solar B
9) 91% IV, 1642 CP, Conf/Psy

Thanks for your help guys!

I would Q-TM the first one either to ES as a generalist or to BS as a Grass-Specialist.

I would C-TM the second and third one to either SoB (attacker) or SeB (defender)

I did not look over your smaller ones.

...although I would (and did) keep a C/P egg that I take into Machamp solos...he comes in after my first 3 Alakazam.

He has 3...I would keep 2 personally, but at least one needs to stay C/P for sure.
Great dbl psychic legacy moveset.

As he doesn't have a C/SoB, I would be tempted to build one of those

I would TM the first one, to have a perfect attacker.

I wouldn´t touch the 2nd and 3rd ones, they are machines to kill Machamps (and Venosaurs).

If you want to power up other one, I would go for the "91% IV, 1645 CP, Bullet Seed/Solar B", as you don´'t have any with quick and charge grass attacks.

Why would you guys TM the first one? If Confusion could be obtained by TM, yes.
But it cant, so it's just a waste of TM.

He has no double grass so it is either a small gain or a large one depending on his need. But yeah it isn't necessary.

Tons of great advice in here so far which is what I would say too.

I will add one thing. I may TM the first one right now but that would only be for personal goal reasons. The others I would probably hold steady on. I think that raid bosses may change soon and depending on your situation or approach to raids this could really change your personal needs. For example perhaps pure grass ones (4&5) become exactly what you need to solo a certain water based boss. Then your need would be much different with limited resources.

Thanks a lot to all for your great tips, very useful!

Based on your replies, I already Q-TM the first perfect one and turned it into Extrasensory/SB which seems to be the best attacker for the time being (except for Confusion/SB which is not possible anymore).

As for number 2 and 3, I am still hesitating. I see merits in keeping these two as they are because of their legacy moves. However, point is that I have already an army of 2 Machamps with perfect IV maxed out and 4 96-98% IV level 30+. So I wonder whether I will ever again go for Machamp raids (same applies for Venusaurs). Any use of exeggutors 2 and 3 as is against dominant pokemons in gen 3 onwards? If not, I would be tempted to C-TM them into Solar Beam.

Finally, I like the idea of making Exeggutors 4 and 5 a full grass pokemons (Bullet Seed/SB) to make them good counters to water based raid bosses that may likely come soon.

What do you think guys? Any further views and insights are most welcome! Thanks
