Depends on if it’s flowering or not. In bloom, once a weekish. Out of bloom, once every other weekish

I highly recommend that you go by dryness rather than a schedule. It completely depends on your ambient humidity as well as many other factors, so the safest is to water when completely dry if not blooming, or water when mostly dry while blooming. You can use a bamboo skewer to check way down deep in the pot— if it comes out clean then it’s completely dry (much like a toothpick when baking).
