Plant in need! Growers please help

My black water og is just starting to flower and I can't shake what I think is obviously a deficiency. I can't figure out what to do I'm a novice / amateur grower and need help. Lower leaves yellowing early and dying at first. Now a lot of the bottom growth has spots, leaves are curling and dying off. There is also this weird orange color you can see in the second picture and the base of the stalk when I picked a leaf. It's all spreading but not to the top newer growth or the top bud sites yet. What should I do? I'm growing in 25 gallon pots and the pH has been at 6.4 to 6.5 been feed Fox farms nutrients and worm tea.

Soil too wet

Should I let it dry out then flush?

You should always let it dry out then water and keep repeating. Let it have a dry/ wet cycle. I made that mistake early and was able to correct it. Also lead away from a high nitrogen feed. And get a blooming feed. Remember not to feed it too much and not everytime u water.

I definitely try to stay away from overwatering I thought I was doing better this season by letting them dry out enough to where they were a little droopy the evening before I water. So that's why I thought it might be a nitrogen or potassium deficiency.
