The caulking should set up in about 24 hrs, then you can use the shower again. -

Surprisingly, it can take up to 3 days depending on how much moisture is in the air. Click on this link to read the article:http://homeguides.sfgate.com/long-should-fresh-silicone-caulk-dry-before-using-shower-93889.htmlGood luck!

most of the new caulks are fast drying about 30 minutes but it depends on temperature and humidity. I would say a few hours to be safe -

About 1-3 days should be enough, I always like to err on the side of caution with these things :) good luck! -
