NEED ADVICE ON WHAT TO DO!!! plants flowering!!

heres the deal.. got a couple plants that ive been growing since mid april/ early may. there all currently in 5 gal buckets.. theres a few that are really starting to flower now.. the other day i was back at another spot and killed to males. i took the whole rootball out just to see and the roots were only really visable at the bottem of the bucket maby an inch just going around in a circle.. is that rootbound? all the plants are over 5 ft. i know 1 ft per gal.. heres my questions..

* will they be able to finish in 5 gal buckets?

* will they produce bug nugs or just spindaly airy nugs?

* if i cut the bottems out of the buckets and stack into another buckets with soil will that help this far along in thr game?

also i can give more details if needed

im just wonderin what to do.. theyeve been growing for a 4-5 months now and i dont want to end up with alot of little nugs on all my plants.. what you guys think i should do?

also these are outdoor

Yes, they are rootbound. You can cut the bottoms out and put in another bucket if you want, but at this stage, the roots aren't going to utilize much of that soil. I'd just leave them be. If you keep them watered, correctly fed, and have plenty of sun, you will have thick, dense nuggets. Don't worry about it. Next year, don't plant in 5 gallon buckets.

so its pointless to transplant.. my only concern is that theyre pretty big plants and a 5 gal bucket might be able to produce the nugs im looking for.. i just dont want a bunch of small buds at the end of the year.. also i heard rootbound affects potency
