Hi. I am new to gardening, and bought a super steak tomato, and a big boy tomato. I'm growing them in air pruning buckets. I think I may have overwatered them. With a recent rain, the soil was drenched for many days. Is this from overwatering? What do you all think?

The yellowing of the lower leaves could be from overwatering but it looks more like symptoms of early blight. The first pic of the leaf with the tiny brown lesions was caused by insects, either aphids or more likely thrips

Those speckles do not look like over watering. Try adding some new soil and spray with some 50/50 water and soap combo to get rid of any pests. I hope they bound back because they look pretty good.
