You’re good , it’s just all of your nutrients are going to bud . Just pull yellow leaves if you want or let um fall off.

At the end of flowering cycle, this is a normal thing man. Flowers outside are also changing colors during end of life cycle. Enjoy the color change and I wish you happy harvest! :)

It’s called the senescence, it happens by the end of plants life, it’s part of the natural cycle of the plant. You can trigger the process by flushing the plants when they reached their harvest window, to break down all the nutrients and the chlorophyll faster.

I mean if you saw it in week 5 it could be a little early onset N deficiency but this close to harvest looks like a perfect fade IMO

With you being so close to harvest and you've been flushing, yellowing leaves is perfectly normal. The plant is dying essentially. It's pushing the last of its nutrients into the buds. This is what we call the " Home Stretch" meaning you're in the end growmie, and you have nothing to worry about.

This is senescence, a perfectly normal process. ^^ Your plants are getting old and the cells are starting to break down.

Early yellowing? Dude those plants look close to harvest to me. I don't see an issue at all.
