The time of day that you water your garden is key. The best time is just before the sun comes up. This gives your soil an opportunity to soak in the water, and your plants can drink it up before the sun appears and evaporates it. I forget the statistics, but when you water in the sun, a large portion is evaporated before it ever gets to the roots of your plants.
