Leave it alone
You will just have to water and feed more often due to it being root bound
Don't transplant, the roots won't grow much in flowering anyway

Transplanting the plant during flower isn't what caused it to hermie
There had to be some sort of stress on the plant because transplanting doesn't cause any stress

Yeah transplanting is normally a great thing to do to allow the plant to have more room for the roots
The only thing that I noticed when I transplanted in flowering is that the roots never filled up the whole pot, you could tell the roots grew a lot less in 12/12

the pot isnt that big>>not sure of the exact size but its 13-14 inches high and the bottom of the pot measures 10inches across and the top measures 20inches or more or more across.

Root bound just means you will have to water and feed the plant more often that's all
It isn't a bad thing, it just means you will have to do a little more work to keep the plant healthy
