How much water does a cucumber seedling need?

I have an Armenian cucumber seed that just popped up out of the bed I planted it in. We have been having 87+ days and 56+ nights here in Albuquerque. The bed is in full sun for around 8:30 till 4:30. How much water should I be giving this little thing? I should mention that it doesn't even have it's first leaves yet.

When the soil gets dry about 1/2 inch deep it is time to water. Be careful not to over water though!
Better to go a little too dry than to over water.
