Thank you Raizla and Shovelman, somehow I missed that little tidbit of info about not transplanting into flower period. Seems like these may then be the final pots. They did get a bit yellow the next day which I was hoping was "normal" for flower plus the extra water used for the transplant process.

I don't know what tier style transplant is, a quick google search showed some plants plopped half way up on top of another pot? I don't like the looks of that although the jury is still out. (meaning have not decided yet) :detective1:

I do the "Chinese box of boxes" style transplant, I'll name it the Box of Boxes method, or BoB for short. We also don't want to piss off the Chinese at this point here in the US. We may owe our soul to God, but we owe our ass and everything else to China.

Anyway, I found somewhere to transplant this way and I like it :thumbsup: :
Take your new pot and one of your old smaller pots,
Fill the new pot enough to place the old pot inside so both pot tops are even,
Now fill in all around the edges between the two pots to make a mold,
Pack it slightly, not too much, just to it won't fall apart then water
Let it drain well and remove the smaller inner pot
You will now have a old pot soil cavity inside the bigger new pot soil,
Now simply take your plant and place it into it's premade cavity,
Sprinkle a bit of soil around the top and water a bit more.
I don't know how that could be less stress free, or would that be more stress free? :wtf: Anyway, I wish I was as stress free.

I think that is a very low stress method so I'm hoping I dodged a bullet :rambo: messing around during flower. And if I may "speculate", The Fox Farm nute schedule shows to add some nitrogen (grow big) at week 3 and 4 of flower so I'll hoping to end up similar to that via the guanos and stuff in the fresh soil. Anyway, well see. (I should translate "Anyways" with an added S for our friends in CA) I'm not actually using Fox Farms yet so I'm NOT adding MG AP all purpose, just the BB bloom booster.

I don't anticipate messing with them much more now, just water, flush, nute and rotate. :weedpoke:
