Sometimes paphs "borrow" nutrients from lower leaves just before blooming. This is a natural process and I wouldn't worry too much about it, unless it starts to take entire unbloomed growths. What kind of temps and light are they getting? It is possible you are fertilizing too much and burning finicky roots. How often are you fertilizing and at what strength?
