tbh I completely forgot his were outside as well. 15-25 for less watering....if you can afford the soil to fill it up.

Use the best soil you can afford. Good soil is the bedrock of a productive grow. This is one spot not to scrimp it will more than pay for itself.

Small pots don't work with Soil usually unless your feeding liquid nutrients or re-amending it with fertilizers. If you plan to use soilless (peat, coco, perlite etc) then you can definitely get away with 3 gal pot, especially with coco.
Smaller pots = smaller plants as well. I can show you right now that I have 3 x 5 gal plants for every 1 x 10 gal plant in my flowering room in Coco/Perlite. The 10 gals still drink on a daily basis and grow much larger than a "5 gallon" pot. This can easily be resolved with more plants, but that is something you should consider with smaller pots.
Not saying they don't work either, 3 & 5 gal setups are very common. Just like @Jjgrow420 stated it comes down to personal preference and experience.
5 gals (3 per tray)
10 gals (1 per tray)
Same veg time, same nutrients, same coco/perlite different pot size.

Is that a drain line built into your stands?

Yes it's TheBucketCompany 22" drain trays. They connect to 1" PVC then I plumbed it to drain into my basements sump with a little DIY enginuity. They are very good stands and come with 1" PVC legs (as seen in pics) but you supply the pipe that runs horizontally to your drains.
