Yes. try not to water it too much, because they are desert plants. They are adapted to water shortage. Give it a little water at a time. if it starts to look a little bit wilted, then water it more than you did. The amount to water it all depends on its size, and origin.

How much water do you need to grow 10 plants?
It depends on the size of the container. For example, a larger container needs more water to keep roots moist. It depends on the type of plant. For example, a mature tomato may need 2/3 gallon of water daily. Also, it depends on where it is in its lifespan. For example, needs are generally highest early on as the plant is getting established. Underwatering generally is recognized by much more roots than shoots. So it is important to keep the pump timer correctly set. Just as important as proper watering is proper drainage.
