Pamela, I think you're looking for a set schedule for watering but you need to water when it is needed, not on a timetable, as Will noted. So bi-weekly may be too much or too little and may vary depending on the time of year and where the plant is located amongst other things. To help you can either get a moisture meter, push a finger into the potting mix to feel if it is dry, or learn to assess the weight of the pot when you pick it up. It doesn't matter how experienced we are as gardeners, we all have had plants not do well or die. It's a never-ending learning experience.
