Months of yellowing leaves

So this girl has had yellowing lower leaves for months, indicating a problem w mobile nutrients. I realized I hadn't been feeding nearly enough for her size so since then I've been feeding her alot, 2 or 3 times a week with different organic nutes. Also been giving Epsom salts and molasses occasionally. She seems really healthy otherwise, she's been growing alot and filling out as she begins flower, but the bottom leaves keep yellowing and dying off. Is she really that severely N deficient? I know I should start to give less N in flower, so how do I handle that? Or is it normal for her to do this since I didn't exfoliate at all? My ph is good, sitting right around 7 when I test it, using the powdered capsule soil tests.

That amount of yellow leaves aren’t normal. The good news is that your new upper growth looks healthy. You should lower that ph to 6.3-6.5 then see how it goes. If you keep upping fertilizer quantity and still no change you’re most likely having nutrient lockout from improper ph. What’s your soil runoff ph ?
