I have one soil plant
I’ve never really dealt with root bound transplant in a smart pot. I think Ragnar is right though. Better to hurt the pot than to hurt the roots.
Make sure soil is wet. Less chance of upsetting the rootball
I transplanted last nite into a 10 gallon. Hopefully she stretches her legs quick an i can flip the lights to 12/12next week

I’m glad your transplant went well. Keep at it! @bob31 @HCHGC @Jmesser80 @McLovin777
The tops/new growth is yellowish, i think because i was giving them plain ph water with no nutes, thinking they were getting nutes from the soil. I gave them a feeding of about 750ppm a couple days ago. My question is, will them leafes that are yellow turn green again or are they gonna stay yellowish an the new growth will be normal green color?
Brand New growth is usually a slightly different color @Banksmoney6485.

My new growth is usualy slightly more pale than the older ones.
If you get it early enough there color should come back into it, at least that’s what I’ve found.

I wouldn’t worry, just wait a few days and give cal mag if it persists

Thank you guys. Another problem i seem to have is a heat issue. I have 1200 watts of light and 1200 watts of heat, lol, with a ac running 3 feet away an still reach 90’s. I wallked in my room this morning an it was 93 in the closet. I rigged the ac so it blows the cool air into a fan an the fan blows into the closet but its still getting to hot so im gonna try to take them out of the closet an set them up in the middle of the room. So tonight after the dark period i gotta move them around an then sit in the room when it gets dark again an make sure theres no light leaks. Its seems like im changing things up everyday, i cant get my setup dialed in. Always adjusting lights or the fan or something. Lol. NOT GIVING UP THO!!! Lol also instead of running 2 hps lights im using 1 hps and 1 mh together to try an give them the full spectrum they need. I really dont know if that makes a difference tho. What would be better, 2 hps for flower or 1 hps an 1 mh?

For the first couple of weeks in flower the mh will keep the stretch down,and after that all hps,to build those buds!
Awesome. Thank you sir!!!
Do you by any chance have this full picture?
@bob31 Thank you for posting these pictures!! I’ve been trying to make my own notes but this is literally everything I’ll ever need to “troubleshoot” my plants! 
Haven’t read the complete thread but if its a fabric pot, you can place in a larger fabric pot and the roots will grow through the other. I have done this in the past without issue.
ive got the same thing going on with mine right now its the roots man i just had to transplant because the roots started touching the side of the pot… idk why but every defecency imaginible seemed to be poping up and that was the reason stress on the roots. pot loves airy soil with plenty of room
