Same thing happens to mine...as they get bigger the lower leaves can't get enough light. First they appear lighter, then start to yellow, and eventually they fall off. It could be something else, but I don't see anything in your pics that would make me worry at this point.

Just remember, those are probably going to double in height once you start flowering, the bigger they get, the less the light will penetrate.

Thanks Frat. With such rapid growth at the beginning of flower do I still need to worry about stretch.

To my knowledge they all stretch to one degree or another. How much is going to depend on a number of things, the biggest probably being the strain.
