Self imposed problems with kind soil

To those who are growing and kind soil, I have created a problem by not following directions. I didn't use any sort of fertilizer and my six plants but I did use the recommended dose of Inocucor at every other watering. Come to find out this advice came from someone who was not growing and kind soil, just a soilless mix. So now most of my girls are yellow at the bottom. They are all in bed but I don't know how to stop the yellowing. I watered them 2 days ago with plain water as I should have been doing all along, and I'm hoping or praying that just by continuing watering them with plain water will stop this progression. I think if this was in regular soil or a soilless mix, a good flushing would do, but one is not supposed to flush to runoff using kind soil as it washes away all the nutrients. So I'm kind of stuck here. Have I blown my entire crop? Boy Lessons Learned. I am wearing a dunce cap.
 
What inocucor product did you use?

Yellow at the bottom, meaning the leaves? The stalk? Both? Yellow splotches, or all over? Curling or bending of leaves? Need a couple pictures for accuracy .
How much & how often are you watering?
 
Here are 3 of them

They are the lower leaves yellowing not the stocks. It was only one inocucor product that I'm aware of and it is by first rays. There in 3 gallon cloth pots and I am watering every 4th day, each takes about 6 cups. There is plenty of air moving around in the room and they are under 4 300-watt World Arrow LEDs and to 450 Watt viparspectra lights.
 
Oh! I thought I was having a problem with them all! I thought I had ruined the whole crop! And some of these guys are very sticky with thick packed cola's. They're sticky and they start to smell too!
 
Maybe topdress with some earthworm castings or bubble some tea to ensure a strong finish. I use 5gal pots with 5lbs of kind in each pot. I used less the first time around, and used 5lbs ever since.
 
Yes. 3 gallon cloth pots. And 21 cups of kind soil which makes 3 gallons. The rest of the pots are filled with Pro mix BX.
 
Yes, its commonly used in gardening .
But a cup of kindsoil would probably work too. Either topdress or as a tea. I haven't tried it as a tea yet.
 
Checkyour area for worm farms and go local 😉. Or you can pick some up at any grow shop,Amazon, etc. I want to start my own bin. Good luck.
 
Californiakid, so you seem to know what it is and my question is has it been okay that I'm using this with the kind soil on these guys? It's full of beneficial microbes. It's not a fertilizer.
 
Greenpassion, yeah ,you don't have any problems, at harvest time they will be all yellow
I always just topdress with 3-4 handfuls of KindSoil, And water it in real slow. Worm Compost works fine too.
Your having fun ain't you ? You'll be smoking some killer before to very long.
 
I just looked it up. It seems fine. Not much different than any other beneficial microbes on the market. Definitely not causing the yellowing.
