Default Deer Feeders

What would you guys say is the best times for me to have my feeder turn on & for how long? I know that there is not 1 right answer but I just wanted to hear your opinions. Thanks in advance.

This time of year, I put mine on 7 seconds at 6:00PM and will continue all summer. I cut it off when archery season opens and back on when gun season opens. The reason I only drop corn once a day is: if it drops corn in the morning, the dang squarills eat it up and they can't eat much late in the day before it gets dark. Just my opinion.
