Depending on their ages. And how big they are. Just make sure to allow for it to dry up some as when the soil dries top down it draws o2 into the sub. This is important with soil growing. Air moving through sub. Young plants just grow their roots. If the mix is good. You should pick pour points and allow for roots to search around and reach out In pot.

First week. if done right. they shouldnet need water for another week. maybe a little less. same thing week 2 . one you are into week 3, you may be up to two waterings a week. heed the advice below.but if looking for approximates there you go. Depend on a lot of stuff. temp humidity,size of the plant.

As often as any other pot plant. as often as you'd water anything else.. it's the same process. nothing special. autos are jsut another plant. don't think of them as different. Normal procedure: 1) always water entire pot and never partial (unless you've put a tiny plant in a huge pot) 2) wait for top layer to dry - this varies based on type of medium you use 3) repeat. keep it simple. Don't whimsically pick volume of water to give beforehand. You give enough to get the job done.

Depends on your environment (temp/rel. humidity) and your soil type & volume. In small pots and warm/dry conditions you may have to water every 3 or 4 days from the beginning. When you have big pots and/or colder/humid conditions, you may not need to water for the first 7-14 days at all. Basic potting soil tends to hold a lot of water due to high amounts of peat and or compost, so make sure not to overwater. When planting and transplanting always water the whole soil before to the point where a few drops of water will come out when you squeeze it with your hands, it should just drip and not run out of it thats the sweet spot.
