Pale tomato plant?

I placed my tomatoes in full sun and they look like they’re getting sun bleached. There hasn’t been much growth beyond this point. I’ve never grown tomatoes so I don’t know if it’s supposed to look like this.

Try moving them out of direct sunlight. It can be harsh on both seedlings and cuttings.

Thts too many tomato plants per pot

Agreeing with Sunny, I think it’s gotten to much light
