True, but I'm looking for more of a general estimate as these conditions will change throughout the year, month and day.

Will it need to be watered twice a day, every other day, once a week, twice a month, once a month, a few times a year?(obviously some of those were extremes. I wouldn't actually expect to have to water it twice a day or a few times a year...)
