Deep, not daily
About an inch of water a week, split into one to three sessions, grows deeper roots than short daily watering.

Early morning watering loses less to evaporation and lets grass dry before evening, which helps prevent disease.

Set a few empty cans in the yard and time how long it takes to fill one inch. Now you know your run time.
