Yes, if you do it carefully you could transplant her, wait till the soil is "mostly" dry, (not completely dry, but not soaking, 40-50% wet) and do it right before lights off to allow any damaged roots to heal overnight before the plant starts demanding nute flow from them.

The downfall of course is that by up potting in conventional soil like FFOF your giving an additional boost of N as well as all the other nutes, so it could effect the flavor of the finished product at this time.


Good luck either way you go with it. Keep us posted.
