Hi me again lol

Its just occured to me i'm purely guessing how much H2O my plants need, at the mo i'm giving the big ones (8 weeks) about 2 pints a day and the little one a pint.....

I am doing well??!:wtf:

All depends on pot size, plant age etc.

If you have mature plants, you shouldn't need to water every day far from it!

You water until you get some run off thru the drain holes, then only water again once they're dry. You can check this by the pot weight feeling light when dry, or poking your finger down the edge of the pot to feel for moisture.
Don't be fooled by a dry surface to your soil. This might be hiding moisture underneath causing you to over water.
