I think if your soil is fast draining, and they are planted in a breathable container it wouldn't be a problem. But like your tender types of succulents, they don't need water every day. Lift the pot when the plant is dry, it should feel relatively lite. Then lift the pot after you have watered it. That will give you a way to know when they might need water again. Don't water again until the pot is feeling lite.
In your summer sun they probably won't do well in full sun.
