Was I too hard in my hardening? – Reddit Post

Help! First time growing veggies from seeds. In Zone 6b (Chicagoland).

Started moving my seedlings outdoors this week for a few hours each day, they went from vibrant green to struggling yellow in a day.

I gave them a break yesterday, but things aren’t looking good. Is there anything I can do to help them recover? Are these babies done for?

Tomatoes look to be faring the worst but nothing looks good. Is this a combination too much sunlight/need to up-pot them? Where did I go wrong and is there anything I can do to salvage my first seedlings?
