This is pretty normal during late flowering, Nitrogen will move up to top budding sites, and those leaves acting as reserves will get yellow, wither and die.
Plant is not uptaking lots of Nitrogen during flower, so adding some nutrients won't help much.
At this points your girls need P/K, the N will be taken from the leaves, not the soil.
Keep on the great care!
Happy smokes!

Possible toxicity or deficiency?I saw this on one of my bottom leaves this morning. Hopefully someone can give insight of what it might be. I'm concerned that it is phosphorous deficiency. I didn't notice it a day ago, but I wasn't looking closely. 2 days ago I watered her (540 mL, 1/4 tsp nutrients). Thoughts?2 years ago

Overfeeding?Is this the first sign of nutrients burn? Some tips of the leaves are turning yellowish and two leaves are starting to make dark dots...maybe too much nitrogen? 🤔The temperatures in my grow box are a little bit low, but I don't think it's the case. The ph is regular.2 years ago

Early growth sick plants - photoperiodPurpling stem, yellowing leaves, droopy leaves - I’m thinking nitrogen deficiency, but I’m not sure if I should add more nutrients or not to my current solution or if I should flush completely. PPM is at 850, and the PH is 6.3. What are your thoughts?
Any GH nutrient schedules?Leaves. Curl down
