Mature lawns require 1 inch of water per week. It is best to water deep and infrequently, so you will want to water twice a week, giving the lawn a half inch of water per watering.
Watering once a day, even for short periods of time is not the best for your lawn. It is best to water deep and infrequently. Most lawns require 1 inch of water per week (even during the summer) so the best practice for watering the lawn would be to water twice a week, giving the lawn 1/2 an inch of water at one time.

It will start to turn brown and will die off. It is recommended that you only water your lawn 1 inch per week. This can be measured by coffee cans set out to the furthest point of the spray with a mark on the inside of the can.
Watering is one of the most misunderstood facets of lawn care. In order to get a lush, healthy lawn you need to deliver the right amount of water while not feeding the wrong seeds: weeds. This lawn care tip will give you the information you need to understand the best ways to water your lawn for optimum growth and health. The first lawn care tip for watering is to let ground dry up between watering. Grass can survive frequent, light watering, but weeds positively thrive on it. When you water often, in small amounts, you give the weed seeds high up in the soil the perfect environment to take root. Grass roots are lower in the ground and a great deal of the small amount of water will evaporate before it ever gets there so the grass starves for water while weeds grow wild. Water your lawn well so that the water soaks into the ground deep at the roots of the grass. Dig down about two inches and pinch some dirt between your thumb and forefinger. If the dirt compacts and balls up it is wet enough. Do not water again until the surface soil is dry and the grass curls slightly. You don’t want it to wither, but you want it to be right on the edge. That won’t hurt your grass, but it will destroy any weed seedlings. Know when enough water is enough. Put a small paper cup out on the lawn marked at one-inch intervals. Make sure your lawn gets at least one inch of water at each session. For the very best results, split the day’s water into two sessions of a half inch apiece. That lets the first session’s water soak into the soil before you apply the second portion. Giving the grass the total one-inch of water in one setting can flood the ground. When you flood the dirt, a lot of the water runs off and away from the lawn so it does not do your grass any good. Taking care of your lawn is not difficult. Watering appropriately will ensure a beautiful, healthy lawn that frames your property beautifully.

There are a lot of variables that will affect the answer to your question. For example, what kind of grass? How high do you mow? How often do you mow? What kind of soil? How much natural rainfall? How much wind? How hot is it? What is the humidity? What quality water? How often do you fertilize? What kind of irrigation? Water pressure? Your best bet might be to experiment. For example, I water for 5 minutes every other day, and my lawn looks great. I will probably increase the time a little if the lawn looks dry as we get more into summer, and reduce it in the fall. Go by how your lawn looks. If you water too much, you are wasting water and you will promote fungal diseases. If it looks too dry, then increase it a little.
Evaporation is when water enters the air as water vapor. "Due to evaporation, the dog lost half of his drinking water overnight."
