Started as yellow spots on the veins of top cola leaves and has turned one leaf completely yellow and I believe that it may be pH lockout of some kind. Any help appreciated and pictures are kinda shitty. Also I want to buy a pH meter but one that isn't TOO expensive that actually works. Thanks.

Haven't yet. Yeah I know they are curling. And the natural dying leaves are at the bottom but I haven't seen anything like this before. It started with yellow spots around the veins and took over that one leaf completely so far. Curling issues aren't new though

Nitrogen deficiency is pretty common towards the end of flower if you're using bloom nutes. You should be ok if that's the case, but definitely wait for someone who knows more than me before you take action

And as far as a good soil pH meter? that is somewhat cheap? I know it isn't nitrogen def or natural dying of leaves

Yeah, Walmart or Home Depot have cheap ones for 10 bucks, but they never seem all that accurate. Try looking online for a quality soil pH meter.

Anybody? Should I cut the leaf that is fucked up? Im not usually for cutting leaves but when I am this close to harvest and I know it isn't nitrogen def or anything like that. I read something online and it sounds kind of like plant rust? Thanks.

Dead or dying leaves rarely bounce back without taking up a bunch of the plant's energy. I'd just cut it off because it's not contributing to the plant when it's sick.
