Depending on where you are heavily affects the way you water them. I'm in Colorado where it is quite dry, and if you are anywhere along the Rockies or smth like that they need to be watered religiously. If you are more in a humid region, they just need to be watered every day or two, to keep them from fully drying out. If you are in the southern United States, every 2 to 3 days should be fine if it's being kept indoors.
