the green tomatoe looks like if it is a "bacterial spot" just get rid of all the tomatoes that have it,, its the wet conditions we are having recently.. also slice the tomato in half to see if you can see any "hornworms"

again it could be just "rot" if its only on one bud it should be ok, keep an eye on them to see if it has spread to other budsites, its the rainy wet conditions we have been having recently.

just keep an eye on them, bacterial fungus can spead pretty quick, but you should be ok i have a few black spots on the tomatoe and i just take them of and put them in the garden bins i have out there.
