I'm 27 days from sprout and my first set of true leaves have yellowed. This plant showed sex after 2 weeks and seems to have a very short life cycle.Do I need to supply more nutes? Should I remove the yellow leaves?
 
Do you know your PH level? Because it sounds like you have a nute lockout from overfeeding/ pre-ferted soil, the first signs of it for me have been the bottom leaves yellowing, and this is usualy from your PH being too low, so I would flush if your PH is messed up.
 
You should provide pics.
As it is hard for those in the know to give specific advice without them.
Rello's question is relevant, having an accurate handle on your ph is going to be one of the first things anyone will want to know when helping you diagnose issues. Ph for both your water & medium.
Also of relevance, is what type of soil or medium are you using, what kind of nutes @ what strength and how often? Temps in your grow area?
And Pics, oh yeah I mentioned those. PICS!:D

Here's some pictures guys. My Ph has been low lately around 5.5 I'm currently trying to correct it. I'm using FFOF with the fox farm trio so far at 1/4 strength. My temps range from 75-83. The strain is sweet afgani delicious; my friend was growing 10 of them and said I could have one so I selected the runt and got a female. :D
 
Hey man. Looks like lockout. Don't add any more nutes right now that won't help. Just feed her plain ph water to bring her ph back up then start back on the nutes then and she should be fine. Give her ph water around 6.4 and that should bring her back up but not too quickly because you don't wanna do that either. Hope this helps.
 
I flushed my plant and now have some burnt leave tips? The new growth is vibrant green though and the buds are swelling so I'm not too concerned. Should I wait to until my PH is back at 6.5 to nute?
 
Yes, I would wait till you get your pH straight. When you have a lock out situation like you're experiencing the plants can properly uptake the nutrients so really no point in feeding more till the pH is correct. You'll only end up building up an excess of nutrients in your soil.
