[Zone 6b] New pot for Early Girl (Indeterminate) tomato plant? (infosec.pub)

Pot is about 1 gallon, I've read that these types should be in a 5gal or even 10gal pot. I also haven't seen any issues with the plant so far; growing and fruiting like crazy. Should I transplant to a big pot or just leave it be for now?

If you go bigger, the plant should also grow taller. You'll need stakes or a frame to help hold up the branches especially one it starts throwing tomatoes. I have 2 in 5 gal pots in a screened patio. They are about 1.5 meters tall and growing.
