Eating more calories as my weight moves up

I feel a little silly for asking this because it sounds quite obvious, but I thought i'd ask it anyway.

I posted here over a week ago about my goal to bulk. Realistically I'll probably stop at 175.

As I gain more pounds, should I stay on my current calorie target or should that go up aswell?

Thanks.

    You should monitor your change in weight over time and use that as a basis whether or not to increase calories. If you stall out, slightly increase calories. If your weight continues to rise at a rate reasonable for your goals then you leave calories as is until that no longer happens.
