Leaves turning pale yellowish white
First time container grow in miracle grow potting soil. Plants badly wilted when transferred outside and some leaves turned white from sun burn plants but seem to recover and get use to it well.
But now some leaves also seem to be fading which I believe is caused by something else besides the sun/wind? Since taking these pictures I fed them for the first time some 18-18-21 tomato plant food and the new growth is growing in a dark green should I be ok?? The damage in the first two pics I'm sure was the jump from indoor light and temp to 90 degree sunlight, the second two pics is whats in question as far as a cause. |

Today I also noticed a few red spider mites, could they have caused these leaves to lose that much color?
Also, Whats the best way to get rid of them?? Thanks |

looks like sunburn to me, did you harden them off sufficiently?
