Pot size- one gallon per foot of plant height. Sounds like yours is a 3 gallon. You may need to transplant about halfway through flower
How would I transplant w/out causing shock? ... Is it ok if I just leave it in the one it is in?

skygrly, the easiest way to transplant without shock, is to simply cut out the bottom of the current pot, and place the entire plant with the old pot into the new, bigger pot. but i would personally suggest completely removing the old pot. just be gentle, and the plant should pull through the transplant in no time.

I really don't think at this stage in your plants life, it will experience shock. If you'll let the pot dry out: hold the base of the stalk firmly, and gently pull it out of it's current pot, and move it to it's new home in a 5 gal pot, all should go well.
Water it in the new pot and medium with a weak fertilizer solution, making sure you have no air pockets, and your final yield will be much improved.
In the photo below, as an experiment, I washed all of the soil from the root system, and re-potted the plant in coco. By adding the dry coco in as natural layers with the roots as I could, it was very happy in it's new home, and never skipped a beat. I simply flooded the coco with quarter strength botanicare organic solution, and hand watered twice daily until harvest.
If you'd like a more gratifying yield, I don't think you have anything to fear from re-potting...
