Hi, on a few of the plants the bottom round-ish leaves are starting to die (the original from the sprout). They're turning brown and shrivelling up.

Right now they're on a 24 hour constant light schedule and are about a foot tall.

Do those leaves normally die? I read somewhere they store food and am kind of worried. Any advice is appreciated as always. :)
