hello friends; I am about to put my guys into flowering . I had topped the one I am about to ask you twice so it has four nice colas. I don’t want to transplant if I don’t have to

Is this pot big enough for him to finish out his flowering or is it to small that willl stunt flower production. See pictures

Girls ... you'll be disappointed if you flowered guys.

Good guideline - for every 1' they go up, give them 1 gallon down below. How tall are they prior to flower?

Probably about a foot and a few inches, since I topped twice it’s more bushy. But I’m not home to measure.

For your reference ... a 26" tall girl was grown in this very same tapered pot:

9" tall, 11" wide (top) and 7 " (bottom). 26" plant was totally root bound and showed some dying sugar leaves in the last 7-10 days.

I thought this pot was big enough.

If you are still in veg mode as indicated in your original post and she's only about 12" - 14" tall now, a gentle transplant will be OK. Make sure that the transplant takes and she thrives in her new home before you flip to flower.

It would help if you stood back and took a pic of the entire plant. I’m gonna go on a limb and guess they’re gonna be a bit bit for those pots. Transplant and you’ll be good. I don’t need even wait to flip. I just transplant and flip but doesn’t hurt to give a few days to make sure they took the move well. The roots will grow and fill up a pot if you double up size. What is that not even two gallons?
