Looks like they are thirsty. 500ml is not a lot of water (0.13 gallons for us americans) especially for a plant going into flower. For reference, my plants are in a 5 gal container and i water my plants every 2-4 days with 2-3 gallons. The easiest way to water coco is to water to 10-20% runoff and then wait for pots to get light then water again. I dont have a set schedule of watering. I water when the plant needs it and that can be once a week in early veg to once every other day in late flower.
 
I think this subject was mentioned before about adding perlite to the mix, that soil needs to aeriated in order for roots to breath.
 
Sometimes a little faster yes - but not more wise than you tersky.
You made a much better comment than I did.
And you mentioned perlite - I didn’t
 
So with the perlite (I did buy some) just sprinkle it on the top of the coco 🤷🏻‍♂️ As for the amount of water I’m to scared to drown them as all the other plants seem to be coping with the watering schedule
 
Not all plants want the same amount of water or nutrients.
I have 9 of the same strain no one is drinking the same.

And for the perlite is doesn’t help to sprinkle to top of the soil/or coco
 
Yep holes in the pots 13ltr pots (not ideal but there was a pot shortage where I live in both senses) as for the perked up yep shes starting to will take a proper look later give her chance to soak it up,
 
You need to mix the perlite with coco. Should have done that before planting. The perlite allows for air pockets when mixed in and increased air flow. As far as watering goes, regardless of how other plants look that plant is not happy obviously. If you had mixed in about 40%-50% perlite in your coco you would have enough airflow to where they wont drown as long as the roots are established. Also using fabric pots would help with airflow. Recommend doing some research to see how to grow in coco https://www.growweedeasy.com/coco-coir
