I was told to water at night because it doesn't make much sense to pour water on the ground only for it to evaporate before it goes where it's needed.



I believe watering at night will generally lead to more fungal rot problems. Better to water early morning, when the water will have a chance to sink into the soil, but will be pulled up into the plant by evaporation of water from the leaves (the leaves’ own water, not water you applied)


Well, that obviously depends from how sunny and warm it is.
