Could be too wet (root rot) or too dry. Stick your finger in the soil & see if it’s soggy.

It's sun. Meter the amount for a few days to a week to acclimate them. They were not grown in full sun.Hello all,
Bought some tomato plants at Lowe’s a few weeks ago. Looked fine when I got them, but now the leaves are yellowing and drying up. Any idea what the issue is by looking at the leaves? Thanks
Started mine about 4 weeks ago from seeds using a 3yr old 18 pack container.
Plan to transplant them into bigger containers within the next couple of days and have them on the back deck like my brother in law did last year.
I’m using the MG potting mix and a sprinkle of triple 13 in the watering can once a week.
I will then use banana peels in water prob next week for weekly watering. I just toss banana peels in a apple juice bottle filled with water and let them sit for a day or two and pour it directly into the soil and it works well for me.

I'm telling you OP. I have one in a raised bed (on the deck, so no ground contact). Mine looked just like yours (except worse since they also had damage from that last freeze even though they were covered). I thought I was going to have to pull it up. I put Miracle Grow on it Wednesday, by Friday it was dark green and thriving. Putting out new growth like crazy. Just do it.What type soil are they in? I've never had luck in containers but a weekly dose of miracle grow normally turns mine from looking like that to deep green in less than 48 hours.
Just listed to Walter on the radio this weekend plus one or two other shows. The problem with seedlings grown indoors is that they are pretty much used to an acceptable amount of sunlight, warmth, etc. When you put them out, make sure you don't OVEREXPOSE them to the sun. They recommended bringing the seedlings out for 30 minutes at a time increasing the time each day in the sun for a week.... IOW, they are not disposed to go directly in full sunlight when they come from indoor growing farms...Hello all,
