Lots of yellowing and dying leaves *pics*

So I have some girls in Roots Organic DSC01327.JPG DSC01328.JPG DSC01329.JPG soil, and feeding Earth Juice nutes. Soil is topdressed with sand (fungus gnats) and EWC. They just started week 6 of flower, but have yellowing fan leaves that are dying. It's not just a couple, but a lot of leaves are doing this. Start out fading from green to yellow. After fully yellow and pretty dry they start to brown and fall off.

*Tips were burnt a couple weeks ago, so not anything new. Only problem is the yellowing.
 
I believe this is pretty normal for 6 weeks into flowering. As the plant matures and gets closer to the end the fan leaves will turn yellow as the buds take their nitrogen. Personally I wouldn't worry about it. Looks fine to me.

If its an 8 week plant and it hasn't been getting enough N that will happen around week 6. It should make it to week 8 but I like to keep mine green all the way to the end, but that's been debated to death around here.

Its normal around week 6 you can give nitrogen the first couple weeks like merlin said and that can take you to the end. I actually like them getting a little yellow they seem to taste better.

Been feeding 1tbsp/gallon earth juice grow with every feeding, soil has ewc, and top dressed with ewc. I was hoping this would cover any N deficiency, and keep them green.

Charface, I just don't know what's up. Looks like a N deficiency, but they should be getting enough. I think the burn was from a larger dose of EJ Bloom I gave them.

These are in 5 gallon pots now. Why that would cause the yellowing?

The yellowing started very slowly around week 3 of flower. I chalked it up to low light areas. It has just slowly progressed over the weeks. They should make it. I just don't want to have any slow growth problems. Just trying to do my best for my first grow.
