Looking healthy, what's your medium, nutes and lights? Pictures - Edit before posting so you can check they are right side up.

Many thanks r_a
I`ll give that a shot on my next attempt.
The medium is ecothrive coco, growers ark soft water coco nutrients & their root tonic, with silicone to ph up and drip clean to take it down. My mixed solution comes out at 5.6 and I aim for 6.4 so i`m always on the up rather than down. Of course I always add my silicone first at around 2ml per 10l of water, then the nutrients, this gets me pretty close to my target.
My h2O out the tap is 7.6 and 60ppm. I run a highish ph to make as much calcium available without adding calmag due to my very soft water.
My lights are a varied bag, small strip light for seedlings, onto 3k 240w QB, then under HPS until the last 10 days or so when I switch to a 10K Solistek halide supplemented with an arcadia reptile light.
I started this grow in .5l root pouches which they stayed in for over 3 weeks until my photoperiod grow finished (a week later than I expected), so were badly rootbound and stunted a wee bit, the pictures at the plant above is at about 40 days, just starting to preflower.
I opted for 8l fabrics even though I know they wont root out them completely as they were all late going in to them, it does give me the option to only have to water every 48hrs which is sometimes necessary due to a hectic lifestyle. At the moment im still handwatering, but i`m switching to blue drippers on a homemade system using a 13mm ring with 4mm off feeders, each delivering about 300ml per minute from a maxi jet 1000l pump. This has worked well for me in the past.
I`m growing 6 plants in a 1m sq cab with quite low headroom so it`ll be a bit of a squeeze but i`ll do my best to get some decent shots of how the CM XL fares.
Thanks for popping in jaypp & many thanks for you hard work in making grows like mine possible. Much respect!
