So I am wondering what would be a good watering schedule for
vegetables in containers (kept outdoors.)
In 10-litre (2.5 gal) buckets, I have broccoli, spinach, lettuce,
zuccini, and capsicum (bell pepper.)

There are also some tomato plants, which will go into 20-litre (5
gal) buckets this weekend.
So I am looking for advice on watering schedules???
I've gardened largely in containers this year, also. You should be
watchful and generous with your watering, especially on sunny days. I
think you should give each container at least 2 liters of water, every
other day, and 4 liters every other day for the larger containers.
