Good info Pat, I water in the morning, and adjust my schedule to do so, It's what the trees need, not to be convenient. Without light at night water usage is down so I feel the roots would stay wetter than optimal, then in the heat of the afternoon, you hope there is enough moisture in the pot to keep the tree roots alive until early evening when watered again. I'll set my alarm a bit earlier and stick to my routine, I like morning, even though I'm not a huge fan of mornings. Otherwise I would set up an automatic system to do the same.

Another benifit if you call it that, is watering in the heat of the day you are changing the root temps considerably by drenching the pot with cold water, all I have heard on that one is to avoid it.
