Welcome to the site! I hope you enjoy it here and learn a lot! I'm gonna have to disagree with Beth on the 25 gallon pot, though (I still love you Beth!!). I'd start off in a 7 gallon, maybe...and even that can be a bit large at times. From my experiences, if you put small plants in too large of pots (especially true for indoors), they don't dry out forever and this can lead to rot or fungus gnats, etc. Eventually, when they get large, they will need big pots 25 gal. or larger (or better yet, in the ground during warm months), but when they're small, I'd save a bit of space and go smaller. Purely from my experience here, and some of the experts may disagree. Best of luck!
