Yes, this looks normal, as the plant uses up all the food in the fan leaves they will begin to turn yellow in flower especially the older bigger fan leaves. It's due to the plant now getting less nitrogen and more phosphorus to help with flowering.

On the 31st day I noticed that, in both the plants, the leaves started yellowing from the bottom of the plant! For now the yellowing reached the first couple of fan leaves.
You can see that in last three photos.
Could be some pH issue or some over/under feeding?Week 5

Yellow dots on the leavesHi guys I need your opinion
I noticed some yellow dots on some leaves of my plants and I wanted to know if it can be caused by too much light or too much nutrient
Or maybe it's just normal and I'm just paranoid XD
I circled the dots that I'm talking about
Thanks you !Leaves. Color - Yellow

Are they still looking overwatered?How are my babies looking? Watering now every 24h (0,5l) and I raised the pots so they no longer stand in the runoff (doh!). The calmag also arrived today so hopefully that will help my Green Gelato with the yellowing 🙌Week 6

Leaf DiscolourationI notice some leaves developing this yellow discoloration on the older growth, usually closer to the central stalk than the outside. The green gradually shifts to yellow going from mid leaf outward to the tip. I'm hoping it's just lack of sunlight from the dense foliage. Ideas?Leaves. Color - Yellow

Nutrient lock out?Well watered my plants with great value drinking water. Ph 4.11. Didn't check ph until week 3. Currently upping it to 6.5 after I found the issue. Does this look like nutrient lock out? They were in root Riot starter plugs. And I fed the some clonex and great white microbs.4y ago
