Default curing stucco

I just put a finish coat of stucco on in the incredible abq heat. How
often and how long do I have to water it to make it cure well?

A couple times a day, for about a week. I have 3 coat stucco in
Nevada. When we ( two hillbillies ) built the patio cover I sprayed
the final coat twice a day for a week. In another week we painted the
stucco. After 7 years it looks as good as the day it was painted.
