Maybe back off on the nitrogen,(burnt leaf tips) some, and go with a bloom-biased fert,(high P) from now on. Otherwise, they look pretty good. Good job.

You shouldn't cut the leaves off, they provide the energy for the buds to grow. Your plant won't die, but now it has to use what little energy it has to grow new leaves to produce energy for the bud.

Use flowering nutes all the way to the end.

"Grow big" gave my plants a wee bit of nute burn -- nothing too bad -- when I first dosed them. I'd say cut that dosage in half (I imagine you meant 2 caps per gallon) or just water with h2o between nute dosages. "Big bloom" is organic and easy on plants (low nute levels) I use it with my grow big and as a foliar feed. As for superthrive I really don't know - I haven't used it but have been curious to.

HOWEVER, because you are flowering don't foliar feed and forget the "grow big" and use the "tiger bloom." I'd say it is too much nitrogen from the "grow big." Cut out the superthrive too. Go with "big bloom" and "tiger bloom." And when it comes to the "Tiger bloom" I started with a 1/4 the recommended dosage - so far the plant likes it so I will step it up to a 1/2 dose next time.
