Dr. Hexbear what do I do? Please save her, I just got her. I don’t know how to take care of children. I’m keeping her outdoors (in New England), where babies should be kept

How much bigger?
And listen I know what you’re insinuating and I don’t like it. She just looks like that, no relation. Her mom liked to party. Move on.
plants respire through their roots in addition to drawing nutrients from the soil. they need room to breathe, so if the pot is too small, the roots grow all squished together. the leaves at the bottom are turning yellow because of this, it's called senescence. i'd suggest something at least 5 times the diameter and height as what she's in now, with enough good soil to fill it.
What about growing on the ground?
that's the biggest pot there is.
i'm sure there's all sorts of considerations about where's best to put it, but she'll probably appreciate the room to stretch if you find a nice looking spot and dig a little hole. i'm guessing once you take her out of that little plastic pot, you'll see her roots are pressed up against the walls looking for a way out.
As big as you can get, especially outside cannabis can grow to be 15 ft tall. No such thing as too big
Like 5 gallon bucket would be alright.
There's almost no limit here, but I'd say 20gallons at the smallest. Seen people grow monsters in 60-80gallons.
