The standard rule is 1 gallon per foot of plant height. If you want the plant taller than 2 1/2 feet, go with the 5 gallon pot. Keep in mind that the plant could double or even triple its size after you begin flowering.

Another way to measure is how many months you will have the plant growing, 1 gallon per month of growth. I use a 2.5 gallon for vegatative growth and a 5 gallon for flowering
thanks for the quick responses,.....im going to plant in the 5gallon pot but only put about 3and gallons of dirt in it so i can hide it in the backyard a lil better...and i will have it in veg for about a month i figure....im not to sure yet first grow lol i kinda gotta find things out one thing at a time
