Unfortunately, your photos did not come through. Usually, if you question whether it is enough or too much water- it will be too much.

It is more common for one to give a plant a little too much water than it is for one to give a plant too little water, unfortunately. It is very important to make sure that the soil has a chance to dry out, very thoroughly, to about 4 to 6 inches between waterings.

This can be tested with a meter. Here is an article that will help:
