Daytime Watering. The best time of day to water your lawn is when air temperatures are lower and there is dew on the ground. Temperatures are usually at their lowest during the late evening or early morning. Most lawns benefit from watering two to three times per week.
The best time to water plants is in the early morning and late evening when watering minimizes water evaporation. Water should be applied to your plants only as quickly as they can absorb it in order to make sure that the water seeps into the ground around the plant.
