not to worry. pinch them off. normal. dont sweat it. and all that crazy stuff. have a nice day.
Reply:You didn't submit a picture so I don't know the extent of the yellowing. I have grown tomatoes for ages and it is normal to have some yellowing at the bottom of the plant (the oldest leaves). Also I believe watering too much might cause it.
Reply:It's not a problem. Happens to mine every year, usually when the upper leaves are growing so well that they shade the lower leaves.
Reply:that,s all right let them drop off it won,t do any harm at all
Reply:Not necessarily. It could just be that they are going to die and it's no big deal. Ive heard it's actually recommended that when you plant it, you plant it up to the 1st leaves. Good luck
