GE Cync Automation Bulk Edit Vs Individual Bulbs

I have a total of 4 Cync Bulbs (model CLEDST196CDGS-2T). I have an Google automation setup to go off everyday at sunset to change each bulb to a different color, brightness combination to align with my outside decorations.

I originally had them connected in the Cync App and linked Cync to Google Home but Google Home kept saying frequently "outside light(s) is offline". Sure enough every time I went into the Cync app it showed the bulbs offline but then 5 seconds later it reconnected them. To help remove this issue, I decided to disconnect the bulbs from the Cync app, factor reset them and connect directly through the Google Home app since these bulbs are "seamless setup within Google". I have had NO issue with connectivity since I done this but uncovered another issue.

I recreated the automation to have the 4 bulbs have a different color and brightness via 4 separate lines within a single automation to come on at dusk. However ALL the bulbs do whatever the first line in the automation is - meaning if the first line is driveway light to turn green at 50% brightness then all Cync bulbs in that automation turn on to green 50% even though it specifically has just a single bulb to do that while the others (lines 2-4) have a different color and brightness. 

I love the look of this bulbs but this automation issue may be a nonstarter for me. Any idea what is causing this? Also, this is my first time posting in this forum and I apologize if this is posed in the incorrect spot.
