They are showing magnesium deficiency and I believe your feeding too strong causing nute burn on tips and locking out nutrition like magnesium. If you are not getting adequate run off each feed then you have a salt build up from old nutrition not washing out as you put in new. Which will cause major issues soon. Would be my observation from looking at plants and your diary.

Yellowing fan leaves Larger, older fan leaves turning yellow slowly. Rest of plant still doing great. Also, leaves are reaching for the light. Is this due to maturity? Or might something else be going on?

Yellow and fragile leaves 2 week Couple leaves yellowing and bit curved up. I suggest there can be the options: 1) magnesium deficiency; 2) nitrogen deficiency; 3) Light burn. For case it is magnesium deficiency I sprayed the leaves with magnesium sulfate (solution - 1g per 1 liter), but it won't help.

Yellow leaves from bottom upwards I have yellowing leaves from the bottom up. It resembles either N deficiency, MG deficiency or both. Growing in soil. PH is between 6.5-6.8. Feeding 1ml/L fish mix and 3ml/L bio-bloom every other watering. I tried adding cal-mag with N at 1ml/L and if anything it's got worse.
