Hi, not entirely sure of the size but as long as its not tiny then you will be ok. I've put them in bigger pots than this in the past too and it's fine. Depending on where you are in the country, a bigger pot could be beneficial if you have to keep it in the Greenhouse for longer due to cold temperatures. Nothing worse than when your plant starts to outgrow the pot!
