Basically you do not want to do this unless it's absolutely needed like root bound and have to move it.

Can you? ...yes. Should you...no Early Flowering is not a good time to shock a plant.

^^^Good words...It would be better to shock her (even though she will be slow to recuperate) than it would be to let her roots suffocate and rot.

HMMM...really can't tell from pics if she needs to move...pics of the whole plant including the container would be nice...

Anyway, next time you may want to transplant to the flowering pot much sooner AND use a bigger container. In general, 1 gallon of soil is good for 1 foot of growth and so on.

Personally, I start in 1.5 pints and do 1 move only into 5 gallon smart pots. Greatly, reduces the possibility of shock.

Next question...what medium is she in and what (if anything) have you been feeding? I ask because this will greatly effect how you continue to treat her after she is moved.

Perhaps the only 'benefit' to transplanting in flowering stage would be to upgrade the medium. For example, if someone is using MG and needs a transplant at this stage and does not go to a different medium...the added MG will have much more time released nute ballz in it.

As a rule of thumb, no.

However, I did transplant 9 plants after switching them to flowering when they showed sex which ranged from one to three weeks in, the longest being the sativa dominant strains. They were in one or two gallon pots and transplanted into 3/5 gallon pots. I don't recommend doing this at all as this can and will stress the plants, but after the amount of transplants I've done, I'm very comfortable with doing it that way.

It's recommended atleast a week before you flip, transplant into the final pot.
