Got a few dead/yellow leaves at the bottom. Is this normal at 8 weeks?

answered grow question 5y ago
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.

Yellow bottom leaves/brown spots on bottom leaves
Hi guys, So 4 or 5 bottom leaves of my 7thWeek autoflower looked like this and I ripped them off. Is that ok or did I harm her? Anyway, is that a Calcium def? Should I give her some CalMag? Could it be something else? Besides this, the general condition of the plant is good. Tx!

Yellow leaves on plant
My tallest plant has been displaying signs of deficiencies/abundances of nutrients. I am worried about the yellowing leaves that have been getting progressively more pale for the last week. Is this a light, ph or nutrient issue? Week 6 of flower right now and N has been cut down.

Do I have an Iron Deficiency, if so How do I increase Iron levels (Already using Calmag)
I think I have an iron deficiency. New Growth is appearing yellow. HYDRO Rain water - (20ppm) PPM 750-900 (just upped) Canna Aqua A+B Calmag (0.35ml/L) PH was 6.2 (as there was a calcium deficiency so I raised it slightly) PH is now 5.8 (I read lower PH is better for Iron Intake

Deficiency or toxicity?
Hello i'm not sure what's going on, is this toxicity or deficiency? She loojs happy overall but new leaves have weird color, curled down tips, some of em are yellow and some are brow - burned.. maybe it's because she's transforming into bloom phase, PH 6.2 but runoff is PH 7.1.

Small brown points on older top leaves
1 week ago she started to get small brown points on older top leaves,and I moved her away from light to exclude light burn. Now there are a lot more of them. I flushed her 5 weeks ago, now she is getting full dosage of nutes. But these points look like nutrient deficient to me.

Yellow centre veins fan leaves
Yellowing of the inner vein of fan leaves only. Also sporadic yellowing and blemishes of whole fan leaves but only some, others fine nice and green. All bud leaves and buds don't appear affected. Is it just that she's nearing the end of her life cycle? Or over water/over nute?
