It should sit until it finishes fermenting...probably 2-3 weeks. If you don't have an airlock, use a balloon or something to stretch over the top of your fermenter. It will fill with Co2 when fermenting. When its done the balloon will deflate. If you are using an airlock you will stop seeing bubbles.

Do you have to use an air lock once it begins to ferment? I usually place a very tight woven piece of linen cloth over the mouth of the container and secure it with a rubber band. I do this to make sure nothing gets in it-like a gnat.

I use airlocks, but a lot of people just cover it with a cloth.
