It is an Auto so late in the plant’s life cycle to transplant. Consider going with larger fabric pots in the future. Depending upon your setup and your expectations to could go with anything up to 7 gallon for auto’s. I use 10 gallon fabric for photo period plants and 7 gallon for autos.

Cloth allows the roots to air prune preventing root bind. Plastic does not. Plant looks good but not in flower. Going to get a lot bigger soon. Just my thoughts. Merlin has you also. Always a few ways to skin these cats.
