 While it might be easier on us to water according to the calendar, plants appreciate being watered on their own schedule, according to when they need the water. Rather than watering every Saturday, make it a habit to check the plant by either sticking your finger down into the soil to see if it is dry, or by picking up the plant to test how heavy it is. A plant in moist soil will feel heavy when you pick it up; a plant in need of water will feel lightweight. Check the soil for moisture and water whenever necessary rather than watering every Saturday. Hope this clears up any confusion.
