Daylilly question?

Disclaimer: I don't know jack about plants.
I don't know if this plant is getting too much water, or not enough?
I started the season on my electronic timer at 20 minutes, twice a day. As the plant bloomed more, I upped it to 30 minutes, twice a day,
Then they started to die off, so I upped it again to 45 minutes twice a day, but no luck. It's still withering.
I used to be able to tell(I think), when the plant had enough water, because of the droplets forming on the leaves, but now, nothing?
Need some help
TIA

I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

My wife says no flowers bloom continuously. And with as much water as you're giving it, you're running the risk of rotting the bulbs so they won't come back up next year. Let the plant do its thing.

Daylilies, once established, will thrive even when it is very dry. They don't need much water.

Yep, ^^^^^
Only in a drought should you even water them. I never water mine and they do very well. Another thing to look for are bugs. Take a shovel full of dirt out next to the plants and see if there's any nasties, like grubs, in your flower bed.HT SYSTEM-
