You can leave it for quite some time (months) if there isn't much airspace and it's in decent (dark, not too warm) conditions.

Was it dry when you racked it off primary? If you're waiting for it to dry out, then you need your gravity readings.
 
I'd wait at least till it clears; clear enough to read a newspaper through. You could also let it age a bit if you want, but you can always let it age in the bottle.
Regards, GF.
 
I thought it may be different if the batch was this small. I'm giving it 3 weeks in the 1 gallon glass jug before I bottle it.
