Well I just put my babies in their new pots and new soil, everything went pretty well. I expected some stress, but they look pretty good a couple hours later..Here they are at 25 days from sprout.

Nice work so far. Start doing some low stress training soon, and maybe cropping also once they are happy and rooted in their new pots.
Are you planning to transplant again before flower? I wouldn't recommend flowering in anything smaller than a 3 gallon pot in most situations.

Thanx, and those are 3 gal pots, my big girl is 10" across at widest point.

IMO those pots aren't near big enuf...for a two foot plant w a 3-4 month life I'd say 5gallon minimum.... I use 7....I tried to get by w small pots when I started...ran into probs here n there....it took me a while to.grasp how important what's underneath the soil is....more so than on top I'd say.....to have a buig strong healthy heavy yielding plant u want plenty of root space...I want my plants to actually believe they are outside....ideally zero root restriction is what id like to have....gonna try two plants in a 33gallon tub next round....

Ya I know, but I have size restrictions cuz of my closet. They will (hopefully) be around 3-4 ft when they finish, and that will be pushing it close.

I thought I'd be hard pressed to fit 4-5gal buckets (or bigger) in here...lol...and plus my hoods only top out at 6 feet...but next grow (Silver Haze) I only have 2 beans and will start them im 3's & move to 5's...And thanx for all the input, and don't be shy to tell me something people, cuz I'll be the first person to tell you I don't know my ass from a hole in the ground (hold on I have a bean stuck)....
