I transplanted my plants from cups into 10" pots. I'm really starting to regret this becuase I hear to maximize your yield they need to be in 5 gallon buckets. So, my question is... Should I transplant them again into 5 gal.? Or can I just keep them in 10" pots? I'd really like to leave them, but I want more yield!

So how important is it for master kush plants to be in 5 gal buckets? How short will they be in 10 inch?
 
It all depends on many different factors man, but you (at the very least) should have them in 5 gal buckets.
I go from 20 oz party cups, to 2 1/2 gal pots, then into 5 gal buckets to finish them off, next grow there going into 15 gal grow bags.
 
i just transplanted one of mine into a 5 gallon bucket, its my first time buy based on what ive seen its very beneficial. Its inside my grow tent so i plan on having that one and maybe one more very big and some smaller ones around them...best of luck bro
 
if you're looking for monsters the 10 inch isn't going to do it. i use 10 inch pots and i pull about 1.5 oz off a plant that was flowered at about 8 inches. any bigger than that and you need more space for the roots. i don't know what kind of lights you're using but you better make sure your light output matches what you need for the yeild you want. you're not gonna grow beasts with less than 400 watts unless you dial everything in perfectly.
