Hi GrowNE,
You are safe to just remove those dying lower leaves. You ar growing in soil and with LED lights you dont have deep canopy penetration.
I also wanted to let you know. You can almost completely flower those plants with just the nutrients you have already in that soil right from the manufacture. What size pots are you flowering in? Sorry if I missed it in your thread. I have used a blend of fox farms ocean forrest and happy frog with nothing added except a little light seaweed and molasses near the last 4 weeks of flower just to give them one last push.

I am growing in 5 gallon pots which I transplanted from 1 gallon pots over 6 weeks. I thought that between 3-4 weeks the plant would take up all the nutrients from the soil, I am new to this, is this a issue only during veg stage not flower?

When growing in soil what you do has less impact on the plant itself. What you are actually doing is feeding the micro-organisms, fungus and bacteria living in your soil usually called mycorrhizal. Most of the nutrient companies make some kind of mixture of this stuff which is not a bad idea to give your soil even though they likely already tossed a bit into the soil you use. I personally favor a product called Great White. ( You can get it here or any grow store really http://www.plant-success.com/product/great-white )
It is these things which in turn feed the plant what it needs via a symbiotic relationship. If you want to "feed" your plants in soil you kind of have to think 7-14 days ahead. Meaning if you are giving the soil something to eat today how long will it take your living soil to process these things your giving them into the sugar compounds and acids your plant will want from them.
By upgrading into the 5 gallon pot your plants really have all the food they need for 4 additional months of growing. You may want to consider some micronutrients such as azomite just to ensure you have all the trace elements your plants may want. And maybe a pinch of that mycorrhizal product. The only other thing I may do really is some seaweed extract and good old black strap molasses the unsulfured kind.
All that being said thus far your girls look very healthy. That is the most important part. If you are going to grow in soil long term you may want to consider mixing a supplemented soil of your own. I have a couple of recipes I like, but the strains I made them for were real N pigs and would use a ton of it in veg and early flower.
I hope any of this helps you have a more successful growing experience. Keep up the good work I will stay tuned.

Dr.danks thanks so much for the helpful information truly appreciate it!!
Here's an update on my plants now the yellowing has reached the top of the canopy on some plants. Not sure if this is another type of deficiency possibly nitrogen I did bump up the dose to half on the tiger bloom so not sure if it's that or not

Ok guys I'm at Day 59 from switching from 12/12, and I can't figure out if I should start counting the days from when I switched over or wait till I saw pistols. (Seeds are ferminized) so I'm wondering if I should start doing my flushing now and harvest by day 74. Here are some pics of what they look like now thanks

Here's my Vortex and a Jillybean I'm mainlining. :)
I just want to add that chemical fertilizer will kill off the beneficial microbes in the soil. Great post though.When growing in soil what you do has less impact on the plant itself.

Thanks!! Next round is going to be tricky I had 6 clones that rooted a lot quicker than expected. they have been in veg for about 10 weeks + and have grown to tall but I'll try and make it work and try some LST. I am only going to flower 2 of them, I think they will fill up the space, any more and I think it will outgrow the tent.Nice one man
