No. Depending on the climate, potatoes should need irrigation only when the soil begins to dry out. If you water them to the point of saturation (a handful of soil, when squeezed, actually drips out water), they should be able to last at least 4 or 5 days. If a handful of soil will not stay in a solid "clump" when squeezed, THEN it's too dry and needs watered. Too much water can start fungal infestations ("rot").
