Whats wrong with these little guys? Leaves losing color?
It seems like these leaves are loosing their color in patches. I looked at tomatoe disease websites but couldnt find anything that was wrong with them. They went into the ground maybe 3 or 4 days ago and then there was a really big rain for two days.
Kinda bummed to be having problems already... |

Looks like sun or wind burn they should grow out of it. How did you start your seedlings and harden them off?

I'm no expert and I certainly didn't stay at a Holiday Inn last night either but I've seen the same thing when I over watered a few plants. After they dried out for a few days they came back around just fine.

I dont think its that either. Its been raining alot this month so the air is super clean here. I was mostly worried it was some sort of disease. Im leaning towards it being a combination of replanting stress combines with too much water from the rains.
