I prefer to start mine in a small pot and work up. This way I can control the dampness of my soil. Nana's can grow surprisingly well in a small pot though. My buddy puts his pups in one gallon pots and they can get 5-6 ft by the end of the season. Granted they will dry out fast, but grow fine. As long as its hot you can plant them in whatever. When it's cool I prefer small pot, they dry out faster and don't stay soggy. How big is you nana? Also, your Q was about growing the Gran Nain (Chiquita). I think you will find most nana's need the same care with only a few exceptions.
