I wouldn't worry. If you had perhaps 50% of leaves yellowing...I'd suggest a worm casting top dressing. But that degree of yellowing is not too bad It happens at the end. How much longer you going to run them?

When you say organic soil does that mean you water w plain water?
I’m asking because for me weeks 4,5,6 are peak times for feeding. Kinda taper up to week 5, then back down by week 8-10

When the fan leaves do this it is because the plant need more of said nutrient to grow @ the top so it draws stored nutrients from bottom fan leaves.

More like 3 to 4 more weeks. Best way is to buy a cheap microscope from Azon < $20, and study up on when the trichs show you they are ready
If you have a decent cell phone zoom in on various buds and take pictures(the ladies usually ripen @ the top before the bottoms) then just zoom in on said pictures, @ least this works for the i7

Most likely it's the weight of the buds

Adding silica from veg on will strengthen stems and keep most pests away

Here's a cheap solution I found a couple years ago while in Bed Bath and Beyond It's Discovery product for kids to make tents with, but amazing to support heavy budded stems

That would be silica...two different things...I know, call me picky.

At the end of the grow...I know the lights will stay in the same position...so I run bonsai wire from the reflector down to tie up sagging branches. Works pretty good and less hassle then a trellis.
