Default When to water?

Those plants will do fine. But, it's good not to let tomatoes go through
extremes - very dry soil followed by lots of water. It can lead to cracks in
the skin. Would it be practical for you to use a watering can or rain wand?

These tools put the water only where you need it.

Even when plants like squash or cukes or corn are producing?

I agree. It's actually good for plants to get to the "soft wilt" stage
before you water. When they first show signs of wilt, water them.
They will grow to be stronger plants.
