How long has she been flowering? Older fan leaves turn die off late in the flowering stage.

pics please

as far as I know, around 2-4 weeks in they use extra nitrogen, and that causes yellowing leaves.
I usually dont catch it in time which leads to a few deficient plants...
but im working on it but we need pics to tell u for sure

that seems ok. I use soil, so idk, but perhaps some nute deficiency. If using those pebbles I would assume you have to be relatively exact with nutes to keep em healthy. I wouldnt worry, the lower branches and leaves arent important... look at some cropping people do to have ll colas! Just keep on what your doing perhaps slightly more nutes. Just my 2 cents ask someone who uses the pebbles you have

Thanks a lot! I DO use pebbles, but if it makes a difference, I DON'T grow hydroponically. I just water 1-2 times a day, and I nute once a week. And the plant is actually in 1:3 part soil and 2:3 part pebbles, Is everything still okay do you think? Again, Thanks a lot for your answer!

Seems an odd way to do things, if you aren't ready to go full blown hydro you should look into hempy buckets, same process you're using but I think a different medium is used consisting of cube rockwool or something.
