If you're Redwood is 45 ft. tall then it should be getting ground water from someplace. A 45 foot tree shouldn't have to be watered due to the expanse of the root system. If this tree were newly planted then I would say give it a deep soaking once a week, but this tree is 45 ft. tall, unless you are having a severe drought, which you wouldn't be wasting water on a tree then stop worrying it will be just fine.

You should only water when the soil appears dry, thoroughly soak the tree roots. Since it's in the ground and not in a planter straight from a nursery I wouldn't water it more than twice a month to be honest just to prevent over watering.
