Less is more. If you put cuttings/seedlings in to something like Happy Frog they will be fine with just water for the first few weeks. A compost tea along the way won't hurt either. I usually leave my clones in a 1/2 gallon container for 3 weeks giving them nothing but water and some 200x aloe powder. Once they get moved to their final home (7 gallon container) I will start introducing teas, Pro-tekt, fish emulsion, etc. Those plants of yours will be fine. Like someone mentioned above, repot them in to a larger container and use Ocean Forest. They will be fine in that medium for several weeks with nothing but water. You could then top-dress with some dry organic amendments, and cover that with some EWC's and you should be good for the duration of your grow.

Flush then give fish emulsion and molasses. Then go from there. They are delocate. Don't throw anything away. It will show how true of a green thumb you are. I have killed plants but learned in the process what i did wrong. Just fuck up enough and you'll get things dialed in. If you want some good cheap advice. Message me and I can try to answer you. I try to help as much as possible. A year ago , he'll even a few months ago I had shit look like complete garbage, made your stuff look like magazine plants lol I will tell you organics isn't easy but once you find your plants requirements you are having fun. The struggles will always come with new strains, just keep positive and calm and don't go jumping to conclusions.
I gave my plants some fish emulsion and the ph was so low it locked out the plants. With my water and fish emulsion or most ferts the ph goes below 4, which is almost like battery acid.

I have to ph my water or I will eventually get lock out in flower.

Really? What fish emulsion are you using? I haven't had any issues with fish emulsion other than it caused a nitrogen toxicity before but I fed it when it was young and in fresh soil so was my bad. I bubble all my stuff for quite awhile and my tap water is around 9 , I never checked ph after using fish ems ion though . I have been really not checking it because I was checking ph non stop for 3 months and whether it going in at 4 or 8, I seem to have a steady soil ph of 6.5-6.8. That's is a peat based soil. I have yet to check my coco. To be honest I been using the kiss method and just chilling because when I chase a 100% happy plant I tend to mess up somewhere and feed to much and cause a toxicity then lock out another lol.

When you added extra lime did you let it cook before you planted? If not that right there can cause a host of problems.

I use the Alaska too, without the pine fresh scent.
It must be my RO water.

I checked the ph of my last tea for giggles and it was 6.5
