Q.Potted Tomato Plants Looking Blackish and Unhealthy

laurie_vanzandt added on June 15, 2011 | Answered

The leaves on my potted tomato plants are not green and vibrant like they used to be. This is my first garden, so I am learning as I go. The leaves are getting light green and blackish, and are drooping. Why?

It sounds like they may be overwatered. Make sure the plants have very good drainage and are not sitting in standing water. This article may help:
