It depends if you wanna transplant her again. If so a 1 gallon would be okay. If not a 3-5 gallon. But I'd wait for dc to answer

3-5 gallon so if you need more soil go get it. also pick up perlite and some rocks. so it holds and drains. have a couple cups of rocks at bottom of pot gives better drainage down there. if you use a cat liter bucket drill holes in it all over the sides near bottom and on the bottom and find a drip pan to catch the water that comes out.

My personal opinion would be to leave out the rocks. The size of the pot will determine the amount of medium you have, that is how much room you have for your root growth. A larger root system will provide for a larger/healthier canopy, a larger/healthier canopy will produce more bud sites, more bud sites gets you MORE BUD 
. For me, space is at a premium, and I would just assume fill that premium space with more soil so I can get bigger roots. YMMV

Oh by the way:
Unlike most folks here I water my plants DAILY.
HOWEVER
I do not water them a lot. I take a 12 OZ Water Bottle and distribute it evenly around the base of the plants (12oz 4 plants). By the next morning the soil is barely damp allowing to water again.
The reason I do this way is because bugs. Where I live too many bugs that thrive on soil and don't want that!!!

Guys I never got to read any of these....... Last one I read was Jartlow's post. There doing fine though. No rocks No perlite. Transplanted one plant to 3 gallon and the other to a solo cup (micro). Pic updates soon, doing the second watering today with the molasses water.

Only reason there is that many pages is because we decided to keep the updating in this same thread. If not I would of had 3 journals by now. Besides, Jartlow and DCobeen have been helpful enough to keep the thread alive while I was getting caught up. Unlike others and there snarky little comments.

Ok. I am about 5 in with 3 Cfls. In 4-5 days should I water/feed or just plain water? @DCobeen
They do don't they. I think the 3rd plant looks a bit mutated though.... @lowryderlove

I light per plant 5 inch is good. You will feed with the other half of the mix you had. which is 1/16 veg 1/16 bloom 1 tsp molasses per gallon of water. do this till they are 4 nodes high then drop the bloom and do 1/8 veg with 1/2 tablespoon molasses. Now its when they are 75% dry so it could be 4 days or even 7 days. get all of them in same size pots. that cup will be to small real quick.

@lowryderlove That and I can't seem to find the "like" button.
@DCobeeen yeah I know it will outgrow it quick. It was kind of a last minute thing and the site going down and all. I would like to get the 2 others in a cat litter bucket. What GL are they anyway? .
