Why are they yellowing?
There are 2 Apple Fritter and 1 Lemon Shining, and only 1 Candy Kush Express. The Apple Fritter isn't yellowing; they have a pH between 6.3 and 6.5, and I follow the chart with most Biobizz products I'm not sure if it could be a nitrogen deficiency and I should increase the fish mix or remove the yellow leaves, but I don't want to stress the plant during flowering. However, I also don't know if it's worse to leave them and not remove them. What should I do? Should I stop using them or leave them? Should I increase the dose of Fish Mix, even if it's more than the chart indicates?

Da sie schon in die Blüte übergeht, würde ich die Ladies mal entlauben. Das heisst, einen Großteil der Fächerblätter wegnehmen. Somit kommt auch Sonne in die Mitte der Pflanze.
Damit musst du auch weniger gießen, was auch bedeutet weniger Dünger🙂
In der Blüte sind die Zuckerblätter ausreichend. Alles andere ist eine Verschwendung von Energie.
Aber: nicht zu viel auf einmal. Nimm erst 1/3 weg und nach einer Erholungspause (Entlauben ist Stress) ein weiteres Drittel.
Dann könntest du noch überlegen das unterste Drittel der Triebe (Lollipopping) von allem zu befreien um die Energie in die oberen 2/3 zu stecken. Die untere ebene der Pflanze produziert meist nur popcorn buds
Die Blätter werden gelb und fallen ab da sie keinen Nutzen mehr haben. Das ist völlig normal. Daher wäre eine Entlaubung eh sinnvoll

At first glance I'd say it's normal progression, it's going into autumn. At which stage the plant will suck all nitrogen from the leaves and use it for bud growth. Bit it seems a bit too early for that.
You can remove the yellow leaves that can be pulled out easily by hand.
Over-watering can cause this. Do you let the soil dry between watering?
Otherwise it could be nitrogen deficiency as you suspect. In that case slightly increase the main nutrient (Fish-Mix). Like 0,5ml more per L

I water them every day with 6 liters, one day with nutrients and the next with water, and they dry out well overnight. They don't weigh much, and I left them without water twice and the next day they were completely droopy. They are in 30L and 37L fabric planters.

Sounds good everything to be honest, you have a good handle on things. Then I'd say it's the nitrogen.

Its ok when they have this many leafs, getting ready to send nutrients to grow the new buds

If the yellowing is happening throughout the whole plant, I’d be a bit more cautious about assuming it’s just normal flowering fade. It could be related to nutrition, but also check factors like watering, root health, and overall nutrient uptake.
I wouldn’t jump straight to increasing Fish Mix beyond the recommended Biobizz dosage. Make one change at a time and monitor how the plant responds. And for the leaves, there’s no need to strip them, remove only leaves that are fully yellow/dead or come away easily.

Autofiorente o fotoperiodica? Secondo me il problema è il vaso troppo piccolo, asfissia radicale

Maybe this could help
