Too Late To Transfer?

Hi All,
I have 2 plants growing, both planted at the same time. The plant to the right is Gorilla ZkittleZ in a 20-gallon pot and the plant on the left is Pymarid Shark in a 30-gallon pot. As you can see in the picture below the Gorilla Zkittles is lagging behind in size and has hit a Nitrogen deficiency. I started feeding it Fox Farm GrowBig and just purchased BudJuice Nitro, Also dressed the top with worm castings... But my question for all you... Is it too late to transfer to a 30-gallon pot with 10 gallons of fresh soil? Or should I just leave it and continue to feed it nutrients? I know every strain is different and maybe the Gorilla Zkittles genetics is just short in size.. Planted in pots May 28th

I personally would continue in same pot. Looks like you could add some soil and or compost to those pots

Yeah, there's probably about 2" room for additional soil. Thoughts on a feeding schedule?

I use dry organic nutes so not really. Id topdress some dr earth or similar and throw an inch or two of compost on them

I'd hit it with fish emulsion asap for 2 weeks, along with a topdress of a high N dry fert.

I use the PITA rule for transplants. When the plant gets big enough to suck the pot dry in around 2 days it needs a bigger pot. The pot you have right now is adequate for sure BUT she might like a bigger pot. How big do you figure she'll get? Most plants grow foliage out to their drip line. Cannabis is pretty generous about that and usually goes a fair bit more. A bigger pot would help with that.
Me, personally if I wanted max production from her, I'd let her dry out a lot so the soil mass shrinks up, roll that bag off and put her in a bigger pot. But I like big pots.
Since you're using liquid nutes I'd keep putting them to her until she greened up. It's a real bitch to green them after they're flipped to flower.
