Help with container size of SS/SD - Chimera Genetics / Breeders Retail - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

Have a SS lemon cello and SD ready to go into flower tent 600hps.
Growing in organic soil and fabric pots. Read where equatorials like the smaller pots i.e 3 gallon vs 5 gallon. Then read a lot of posts of SS and other SS crosses being grown indoors in this chimera forum in a lot larger containers. Opinions on whether I should use the 3's or 5's . ???
Watering not an issue. I can water as much as her air pruning roots can take. I see most of these SS and crosses are taking between 70-80 days to finish. Is this about right? Plan on lots of pruning lowers and height management as they look to be quite stretchers.
Opinions welcome.

Thanks

Definitely 5 gallon, even with pruning....need adequate root growth with room to uptake nutrients.
