You don't -- there's no explicit control over it. The FS will decide based on the overall size of the filesystem in question. Typically, data groups are made of 1 GiB chunks, and metadata groups are made of 256 MiB chunks (where the RAID level will determine the number of chunks in a group and the amount of usable space of the group).
