What do you do with them watering wise? How about when you leave for a week or so on vacation?

Mine personally can go around 3 weeks without a drop of water without even starting to shrivel. I have mine on a mount without any moss, in regular home humitiy levels, and I never water more than once a week.

During the winter when temps are in the seventies (farenheit) , once per week usually suffices but during the hot summer weather I water heavily once per week and mist about every other day. These plants like a lot of water but they must dry quickly. They rot easily if kept too moist.
