Stick your finger in them at least 2" down. If damp, check again in a few days. If dry, give them a drink. That is how I check on my potted plants year round.
Just don't leave them in a wet saucer to soak up the water into the soil. Don't over water or they will surely die. I know!
The handiest thing I ever bought was a plant watering meter. You stick the rod in the pot and it will tell you if your plant needs water or not. $19.00 Got mine at Amazon but plant stores have them.
