Did I transplant too late?

I just built a rubbermaid growbox and transplanted my month old plants into some bigger pots. I knew I needed to transplant about a week ago, but just got around to it. When I turned the original pot upside down to get out the plant, all the roots were at the bottom of the pot in a circular formation. It looks like they couldn't go any deeper so they just went around the bottom of the pot. When I transplanted, I tried to straighten out the roots and get them untangled the best I could without ripping or tearing them. Words of wisdom for the first-time grower anyone?

If you were carefull during transplant they will be fine. That is normal and a good sign as big roots mean big yield! It may take them a few days to recover this is normal!

Yeah, next time don't disturb the roots Let nature do it's thing, they don't need that kind of help, they can do it themselves!

Plants hate having their roots disturbed - it stresses them out.
