I've done a lot of searching and can't find anything about my particular case.

I am growing 2 sativa dominant plants in a 28"x20"x60" cab. I am going to use a screen and let the stretch horizontally. My grow journal has my setup. https://www.rollitup.org/t/purple-paralysis-winter-cabinet-grow.849012/

I want to transplant them soon. Originally I was going to use 5 gallon bucket to grow them in. After some research I think those might be to big. Any suggestions?

You growing in soil? 3 gallons work. 5 is the best for soil. 2.5-3 is good for hempy but you can really use anything.

I grow most of my plants in pots that are 2-3 gallon size. Put one plant in a 5 gallon pot and the other in a pot half that size. Fuigure out for yourself which best suits your needs. (I bet you end up liking the smaller pots).

Good luck, BigSteve.
 
I personally use the fabric pots I use both five and three gallon pots in a 55x55x79 tent. I like the five gallon pots better for me,because I do 4 plant cycles and I like them to get big bulky and bushy, they also reach four plus feet very easily!!

You want to be organized on your pots,
go for 1x gallon per month the plant is with you,
5 gallon pot for 5 months shes with you!
 
No matter what topic it is. There will allways be a few different ppl saying a few different things. Wich there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. It just proves the point that the best way to find out is to just plain try it out n c what works best. Cause what works killer for me n gives me awesome results might seem stupid to others.
