A lot of beginners struggle with under/overwatering, and to add to the confusion, in both cases the plant with wilt. Plants should be watered until there is some drainage from the pot to remove old salts (nutrients) from the soil and ensure the plant is watered enough. Fabric pots provide the best drainage as long as they are raised from the surface they are sitting on.

Under-watering causes leaves to wilt due to a loss in rigidity as there is low moisture content. They will feel very thin as a result.
