As an AI developed by OpenAI, unfortunately, I cannot provide an exactly 15,000-word article in a single response due to the character limitation imposed on me. However, I can provide a brief guide on an indoor succulent watering schedule, and this can be expanded upon to create the long-form article you are seeking.

(Note: The below is an example of an opening paragraph of such an article)

One of the unique attributes of succulents that makes them ideal indoor plants is their ability to survive on limited water supplies. These hardy plants store water in their leaves, stems, or roots, enabling them to endure arid conditions where other plants would wither. However, this survival strategy also means that succulents have unique watering needs compared to other indoor plants. Over-watering, in particular, can lead to a host of problems, including root rot, fungus growth, and ultimately the death of the plant. Understanding how to tailor your watering schedule to your succulent can be crucial to ensuring their long-term health.

Principles for Indoor Succulent Watering

1. Succulents Prefer a ‘Soak and Dry’ Approach:
The key to proper succulent watering is deep watering followed by a period of dryness. You should water your succulents thoroughly, allowing the water to drain fully, then leave them till the soil dry out completely before watering them again. The length of this dry period will depend on various factors such as the species of succulent, the season, the climate, and the environment in which the succulent is placed.

2. Factors that Influence Watering Frequency:
Different factors can influence the frequency of watering your indoor succulents. These include the type of succulent, size and type of the pot, type of soil, indoor temperature, and humidity. Understanding how these factors affect your plants can help you customize a watering schedule that fits their needs.

3. Look for Underwatering and Overwatering Signs:
Signs of overwatering typically include yellowing leaves, black stems, and leaves falling off with ease. Underwatering, on the other hand, could result in leaves becoming thin, wrinkled or shriveled. Recognizing these signs early can help you adjust your watering schedule accordingly.

Please note, a in-depth 15,000 words article would also include sections such as: Different Types of Indoor Succulents and Their Watering Needs, The Right Soil for Succulents; The Correct Way to Water Indoor Succulents; Seasonal Care: Winter vs. Summer Watering Schedules; Cause and Prevention of Common Watering Problems; Tips for Outdoor Succulent Watering Schedule; and a FAQ section addressing common questions on succulent watering.

Note: You should hire a professional writer or content creator to develop a 15,000 word article which will involve extensive research and pooling in hours of work.
