Detailed explanation-1: -Watering in the morning (before 10 a.m.) is the best time for your lawn; it’s cooler and winds tend to be calmer so water can soak into the soil and be absorbed by the grass roots before it can evaporate.
Detailed explanation-2: -The best time to water plants is in the morning or evening. Morning watering is actually preferable to evening watering as the plant has time to dry before the sun goes down. At night, water tends to rest in the soil, around the roots, and on the foliage, which encourages rot, fungal growth, and insects.
Detailed explanation-3: -This will help the plants absorb water before the nightfall and will not hamper their growth in any way. Watering during this time avoids the evaporation of water. In the summer season, you can always water your plants in the evening.
