I would make sure that your problem really is the pot size before transplanting. First week of flower is not a time to stress your plant. Maybe you could take a pic and someone here can help you. Good luck to you

Long root is incorrect if your going to do any transplant during flower you want to do it in the first week this is always a last option but it is always better to have the bigger pot going into flowering if showing signs of rootbound. The first week is the best during the transition when the plant is deciding it needs to flower this gives it time to recover in time for the stretch. I have read in Weed World mag that you can transplant all the way up to the 3rd week of flowering but i wouldnt do it i always transplant right before they go to flowering i have done a few a week in and to no neg results. What your using as your medium also matters i have had plants go through flowering in a 1.5 liter pot with coco and got 2 oz of each plant. But that was a smaller plant and a clone. Transplant it now if your gonna do it

You may have read all about it. But I am speaking from experience. You will delay flowering time if you stress your plants early in flower.

I've done mine as late as 4 weeks into flowering. The biggest issue I've faced is that after a couple weeks into flowering the root system is mostly done growing as the plant is focusing on bud production. If you put it in a bigger pot, the plant may put more effort into the root system, sacrificing bud production. Another issue I've faced is because the root system is underdeveloped for the pot size, the pots take longer to dry and don't dry as evenly increasing chances of root rot or other root issues. If it has to be done, I would advise going up the next largest size, 3g - 4g etc..

It certainly does help, most of my problems arouse last time with a change in the weather, the cooler temps played havoc with my watering/feeding schedule. This time I've tried to keep the temps up in the high 70's to help dry the pots out faster.
