Is the lighter green in the leaves because of nutrient deficit?

Too much nitrogen and not enough potassium. Leaf discoloration is potassium deficiency in early stages. Flowering npk ratio is 1-2-3

Lower the amount of Grow you are using, maybe by half the amount, your well into flower now.

During flowering, it is quite normal for the leaves to turn yellow.
The plant puts all its nutrients into the flowers

What’s wrong ?This plant has displayed this yellowing in a couple of its older leaves. It hasn’t gotten better with the exclusion of nutrients it doesn’t seem to be hurting the growth of the plant as it has continued to grow over the past week. Is this something I should be concerned about?Leaves. Color - Yellow

Yellowing a bit too soonDuring the second week, leaves started to look a little bit yellow. The first true leaves yellowed way too soon. I'm guessing lack of nutrients. It never showed signs of drought or overwater stress. Your thoughts?
I planted it into larger 2.5 liter container now.3y ago

Mosaic pale discolouration of older leavesHey fellow growers. It is day 16 since sprouting. The development looks good, but I see discolouration of older leaves. I researched a bit, and it seems to be thrips? I searched really good but I cannot spot any insects. What do you think? Preventively use insecticide or wait?Week 3
