How often should I water my pot plant?

Plastic Pots from Horticultural Supplies Co. India
Generally you should aim to keep the soil evenly moist at all times, not wet and not bone dry. Whenever you water, do so till some comes out from the drain holes. Then wait till the soil is somewhat dry at the top and still moist below the surface (you can tell by poking in a finger or by the weight of the pot) and then water again. This interval will be longer in winter or rains and shorter in hot weather.
