Looks to be nute burn. People need more info if you want help tho, nute schedule, PPM, PH of the runoff if you can test it.
I would say to flush them immediately with a very light nutrient solution, as it helps dissolve buildup better than pure water, use at least 2x the volume of the pots of water. You should have a ph meter or strips to test your water too.

i start my nutrient feed around week 5 of flower i use a 45 gallon bucket to mix all my nutrients and a sub pump to water, i water each plant for 3 minutes, when needed which is every 3 days or so the ph level is 6.0 or 6.5 everytime i flower i am using happy frog soil, and heavy 16 as a NPK

Yep, you have more yellow pics here than info but from what can be seen it looks like all the makings of nutrient burn. If you are a new grower that almost guarantees it.

....and no, the last thing it needs is more nutrients added to it. Ignore that crap above. ^ Those burnt leaves wont correct themselves. Flush them with 4 or 5 times the size of the pots with just plain water and learn from it....Less is more.

you have cooked your plants give them some fresh ph water for the next 3-5 days or give it one big flush and let them dry out up to u which way u wanna go

dont do 4-5 times really its a wast and ill have som1 jump on here and go no its not lol go 3 10 ltr waters will do just fine do it over a period of an hour or more so water with 10 ltr wait for it to drain and repeat 2 times after that let it dry out then start with 1/2 nutes and work your way back up to full nutes

should i start cutting off fan leaves? which ones do i cut? or should i even bother cutting them?
 
With GSC you ease them into your feedings. Half my rooms GSC for over 2 yrs and i saw that same thing my first two runs. I figured out she likes to be fed gradually from the beginning and she'll reward you with some of the healthiest looking colorful fan leaves. She also reqiures more cal-mag & N during floweing then any other strain.
