question about potting up young citron tree

Hi, in April i purchased a Buddah's Hand Citron tree that came in a small 4inch pot and i put it in a #1 nursery pot as seen in the included pic. My question is can any experts here basically give me recommendations on when would be the best time to pot up this tree and does it look healthy as of now? Its in promix Bx w/myco atm and i fertilize once a month with a citrus fertilizer and maintenance with dyna grow Gro liquid at 1/4th per gallon when i water which is once a week. I will be looking to keep this tree in a container and was just wondering if i pot up now or wait till after the summer. I am zone 9 and it stays pretty warm here until November (South Louisiana). I currently have left over 511 mix from my peppers but was also looking to put it in gritty mix with a more attractive container so was just wondering if now would be ok or should i wait and what would be the ideal size to next pot up too 3 or 5 gallon size. thanks
