Hey guys, I’m going to attempt to grow a “regular” plant (I’ve only grown Auto’s) Chocoloupe And I guess it grows Big so what size of Smart pot should I use? I have 5 & 7 lbs. … I’m assuming I use the 7 because I use the 5 for my Auto’s. ANY ADVICE IS APPRECIATED!

If your growing indoor 5-7 should be good. Outdoor grow, bigger is better 
Bigger pots allow for a stronger root structure and will produce big strong 
plants.

It does, but how you’re planning to grow is the most important thing to consider. Living soil without added nutes - you’ll need a big pot for big plants. Soil and added nutes - you can use a slightly smaller pot. Inert media with nutrients - you can go smaller still.

They are sized in gallons not pounds. The size of your pot should be a reflection of the space you have to grow your plant! If you were growing outdoors and needed to move your plant that could be a factor unless you made a dolly cart to move it. If you are growing outdoors and have no requirement to move the pkant then make a mound or dig a hole and put you medium in the hole or make a mound out if it. Size does matter when it comes to roots, and the bigger the roots the more access to nutrients and water. This means you need a lot of space for a large plant.

If you are using soil I would favor the 7 gallon. They don’t have to be tall either to yield well. If you are indoor look into Promix HP or coco and Jack’s for a supplement. This will likely give you best growth/time and help with yields.
Here’s a 7 gallon done in Promix with General Hydroponics nutes: 5 1/2 month plant.
Outside for photos at harvest. Yield was 14 oz of flower plus trim. Plant was a regular female and the strain is Game Changer. Overall plant height in SCROG was 30" from the ground.
