I read the previous answers and I am wondering about transplanting my "lucky bamboo" from its ceramic stone filled 2x5in box to a 5 to 10 gallon smartpot. With this I have plenty of time and indoor grow equipment to work with during winter months. My question is how large will this plant get and is it worth growing in a 5 gallon or larger pot? Also how do I clone or will it just spread on its own?

Some bamboo plants I believe grow to the size of their pot. Others only grow to the variety size, while some require their roots to be somewhat compact. Some "lucky' bamboo plants are not even real bamboo. So, its hard to answer this one. The big thing about them is that chlorine water will kill them over time. So, try to water it with bottled water when possible.
As for your original question, only replanting it will tell you for sure, but most likely it will grow larger once in a bigger pot.
Leave it alone. It needs a tall glass vase or ceramic container
