Yeah, ur gonna have issues. The roots are gonna "mass" to the point to where all those valuable roots will be in a solid ball and will not be able to uptake nutrients. This will stunt growth a bit but def affect yield. Transplant into 5 gal container or better, there are many vids on vid sharing sites that show dif techniques on transplanting rootbound plants, watch a few. I've fucked up a few times over the years and done the same thing, and I've "inherited" a few rootbound plants. This is an issue that will not resolve itself,
