1> I'm watering once every 3-5 days. I wait 'til the soil feels very
slightly damp (even touching on dry), then I water heavily. Good
practice?

2> It drops a lot of flowers, but still looks healthy. Is this normal
for bouganviella?

3> I add a seaweed/fish furtilizer once a week or so. Do they like
this?

Thanks!

In a pot, maybe. In the ground, they can probably do with less.

Yes.

Sounds excessive, they're big weeds and do well with little care.
