Clip em off. As your plant grows it will consume the nutrients stored in lower leaves that don't get enough light. What are you feeding her for nutrients? This is normally a sign that she is getting hungry.

roots organics lush soil

From Lushes website "plants can happily feed on Lush for up to eight weeks without additional support."
I'd imagine your soil is starting to run out with nutrients and you need to start supplmenting nutrients into you water.
I've been using Fox Farms Trio nutrients and Cal/Mag for past couple grows without issues. If you do get some kind of nutrients, go half strength from what the directions say. Also flip between watering with normal plain water and water with nutrients every other feeding.
Also 70% humidty is kinda high at your point, would drop it down to 60%, temp is fine.

Yank em. Carry on.

Your plant is fine. My lowers are like this also. I imagine cause they arent getting light so they start to cannibalize themselves for the upper nodes.

They've served their purpose and are now being blocked from receiving any UV rays by the canopy of leaves above. Clip them.

I had a buddy explain this to me in the best way on my first grow when I asked him this very same question. He simply said, “they’ve just lived their lives out, bud.”

They're old leaves that have served their purpose and are mostly blocked from light by newer growth. The plant will "cannibalize" them by sucking the stored nutrients out and killing the leaf, allowing its nutes to be used by the plant for more growth and keeping energy up as it no longer has to supply water and energy to a leaf that can't photosynthesize
