don't water till soil is very dry. then water very slow. it works out to every 3-5 days.

Never let your soil go very dry. The plant needs moisture to live and to function. If you let the medium go dry, well it's like us going with out fluids. Not Healthy.

the way i check,
i wiggle my finger down in to the soil and let it sit ther for about 30 sec if you feel that the soil is moist there good if it feels dry it may need water step 2
lift the container does it feel heavy or light. if its light and the soil felt dry water the plants etc.etc.etc after awhile you wont even notice your self doing this it becomes second nature to growers.
peace

u can buy a water and ph meter that tells the ph of ur soil and different wetness of the soil can pick them up for around 12 bucks. They are worth the money and u dont need batteries to operate.
