Lower leaves yellowing and wilting quickly
Soooo Just went to water this beautiful lady and as you can see from the pictures 2 days ago and she was healthy. So this evening i found that the lower large fan leaves and the smaller fan leaves on bud sites are drooping and yellowing. This looks like its nitrogen or lockout?

Yellow new foliage
From my research it could be phosphorus toxicity, iron deficiency or sulfur deficiency. Or it could be over watering. Or it could be poor drainage. Or it could be light deficiency (I have a 42watt Tled with some led strips until Mars 600 arrives)

Yellowing of leaves during flower
What is causing yellowing of the bottom/backside fan leaves during week 5 of flower? Should I worry about it spreading? Increased bloom nutrients to 3ml/l recently but could have started when feeding 2ml/l. Or is this just leaves yellowing as a part of flowering?

Seedling Light-burn or Toxicity
Hi growers! Is this Light Burn, or nutrient toxicity from nutrient dense soil? 2 Mars Hydro TS600 lights at 27" from seedling. PH 6.3 misting soil - RH is 75-80%. - Temp is 77F No light meter, so I estimate PPFD is in acceptable range despite using 2 lights in 2x2 tent.
