Are you ferting? How old are they? How much are you watering? Yellow leafs normally means the plant is drying out, or fert burn.

nah, dont worry.

the bottom set of leaves often turn yellow and die off. This will continue to happen as the plant grows. I like to prune them off as they start to yellow so the plant doesnt waste energy tryin to keep them alive.

I think the reason this happens is cuz the plant is putting all its energy into the upper leaves and growths, and doesnt care about those bottom crappy leaves. plus they dont get any light, causeing them to yellow.

the pros will correct me if im wrong, but i think this is normal.
