What's your soil? What are your watering and feed practices? Temp? Humidity?

The yellow striped leaves are an indication of magnesium deficiency. A tablespoon of Epsom salt in a gallon of water should help with that.

It looks like it's starting to flower. That means it's getting hungry. It needs some N-P-K.

The lower leafs die because they deliver fuel into the plant. It’s what they do

You may have a mag deficiency however I would need more info to comment on overwatering- which can cause a mag deficiency.
What type of pots? Solid or fabric? Also what do the fan leaves look like on the whole plant? Pictures…..if they are all dropping then it could very well be too much water. Basically the roots can’t do gas exchange and you smother them.

I will say the leaves I see don’t strike me right off the bat as watering issue. A little mag won’t hurt.
You could also consider a foliar spray in lights off and would see results within a day if it needs the magnesium.

Also epsome salt will give you some sulfur as well which is beneficial in flower.
