#Oregano needs to be less often than other herbs like cilantro. It depends on the pot, light conditions, soil etc but whenever the soil is dry is a good rule of thumb. Some leaf drop is expected during winter when light levels are lower.

If Greg is recommending longer than the time it takes for soil to dry, you can water Ore early and Greg’s recommendations will learn and adapt. For the conditions in Ore’s plant card (terracotta pot, close to window) I would guess roughly weekly. Every 12 days is probably a bit too long.
Thank you!
#oregano or any #plant , you just grab a stick and put it deep In the dirt then take It Out, if it's dry, water it, if it's wet, it has water. I used to water mine every 4 - 3 days.
