Hello there!

thank you!

Everything sounds good. Plant looks healthy. If buds are progressing plant is stretching growth is happening and the leaves remain healthy I wouldn’t worry much.

Overall she looks healthy, but i think you should start watering until some runoff to soak the whole medium. My plants looked like that as well, and eventually they stopped perking up and they were wilting more and more. But things got got better with more water. I have a 15L fabric pot but it holds around 20L of soil. Also Biobizz Light Mix. I used to add 3L of water in veg state, but now i add 6L in flowering.

700ml or 1L of water is not much for a 10L pot, i think around 3L would be better. The roots on the bottom are not receiving any water from that 1L.
Water until you get some runoff and then wait few days until the pots are light and dry again, could be 3-5 days approximately until the next watering.

Add water slowly little by little, cup by cup if you have to, i spend at least 15-20 mins for each plant with a small water hand-pump. Let it fully soak the soil. With a plant of this size, in flowering stage and a fabric pot it's hard to overwater.
It's better to add a bigger amount of water every 3-5 days, than giving 1L every 2 days.

If you water till runoff, wait until the top is slightly dry, then water till runoff again. Should be watering about every 2/3 days. Took me too long to realize this lol so passing this onto you. Could be that your nutrients are slightly building up at the root zone. Other than that, they look good
