Is this Tomato plant ok or diseased?- trying again- Tinypic

Hi, I am trying Tinypic to see if you can see these pics of the tomato plant... It had some blackening in it as you can see from one of the pics. also some yellowing /brownish spots too.... Just not looking like it did when I bought it. I want to be sure I do not infest my garden with a diseased plant....

Thanks in advance for your help.

Now that you switched to photobucket, you can show your pictures here:

And no, it isn't really looking diseased to me, but not really thriving either. A bit spindly and stretched, with long leaf internodes and a little pale.

Is it in full sun? Is it getting enough nutrients? It's a pretty small pot for it.

Thank you Rainbow Gardener, :) I have no idea how you did that! (but I would like to) there only seemed to be one thing to copy and past for the whole album!!

Yes its getting full sun etc. We even had some rain here yesterday.
Did you all see the blackened part of the plant/leaf etc? Picture #2 shows that real well. I will plant this in the garden within a day, and not another pot.

Marlingardener - is that what you do for all your tomato plants? 2 stakes and soft string between the stakes? Do you think you can post a picture of yours like that? I am not really wanting to use many cages since they fell over last year. (of course, I need to be much better at pulling off suckers).

Bless you & thank you,
Kepkitty

Just mouse over (put your cursor on) one photo. It will pop up underneath it some codes. Click on the IMG one, which copies it, then paste it in here. Very easy.
