Day 50,is the yellowing and dying of the leaves normal? Having pH issues for the last week but keeping it in range when I see its out.

It's pretty common in late flower and not the end of the world, but still not ideal. Your nutes are off a bit from the ideal mix that your plant wants so it is pulling them from the fan leaves for bud production.

I don't see signs of them being overfed on nitrogen so I don't think taking your ppm back up will hurt anything. But, since so many large fan leaves are fading I'm not sure it will do a lot of good either. Once a leaf starts to fade in flower there is no bringing it back. So those large leaves won't be pulling more nutes and it may not make any difference given where they are in flower cycle. I do favor lowering nute levels once bud swelling has stopped, which is usually the last week or two.

Ok cool so you think I could cut the dying fan leaves off? Also I have done some research on dry n and curing and think I got it. The longer you cure the better the taste. And you can't rush it! Lol So for this first grow I will skip the flush and focus on the dry and cure as you stated.

I would not cut them off. When they dislodge with a very light wiggle, then the plant is done with them.
