My first idea was also that they look quite dry and underfed. Your plant is probably like: I need to salvage what i can from what i need least so i'm going to suck the last live out of the lowest leaves and deliver it to the flowers. (I would not have cut off the leaves that where yellowing but still had some nutrients and water in them as the plant could have taken from them still.) If you over watered then your roots might have been damaged and then you need to make sure that the top third of your pot stays quite dry so that the roots can take up oxygen there and you water from the bottom so that the deeper roots can take up the water from there. Roots need water and oxygen so that they can deliver it up the plant if either of those are missing the plant kinda dries out. And the shallower roots typically take up the oxygen as the higher earth typically is dry enough for that and the lower roots are typically in the ground level water. So some root mass can be totally submerged in water as long as there is also root mass that can breathe. So with that info you have to judge yourself if they where over watered or not. If not they look quite dry and you would want to water them with some more nutrients. And since you have low humidity to begin with you might want to put those pots in like some porcellan or something that would allow you to have 3-4 cm of standing water in like a bowl or plate. That way you can water from the bottom and have standing water at all times helping with humidity. BUT if you go with those bowls under your pots and they are constantly having 3-4 cm of standing water you cannot!!! water them from the top no more because then the top roots could not breathe no more and even though your plant has masses of water it would dry up as explained before.

Do you ph your water? Could be under watered is what I felt when I saw them at first. Definitely see some deficiencies as well. Not sure if it’s the camera or. It but there was brown spots on the leaves. And the yellow leaves with that plant height at this age is probably a nitrogen deficiency. I would add some cal, mag, and nitrogen to your next feed and see how they rebound. Good luck and happy growing.

@Spinning is right! It's over watering, roots have been damage and can't take up nutrients. Lighten up on the watering and lollipop the bottoms.

I go with spinnn,my auto’s are 20 days old and I only fed them on day 14(I use light fertilized soil from the local shop) and only water them when the pot feels light so you get a good wet/dry cycle in your pot so the roots can breath and take up the nutrients

250w is probably your issue with bottom yellowing leaves. Couldn't see your numbers but will want 15-35,000 lux on the plants for veg. Weaping can be humidity, heat stress, over watering , too much nuits.

Could be a possible over watering as leaves are droopy but coulis be something else , put a finger into the soil to be sure. If it ise an over watering then maybe the roots have been damaged and have a little to no access to the nutrients se leaves are yellowing.
