Wet/dry cycle just means that you don't keep the soil wet constantly. Instead water them so the soil is fully soaked, with a little run-off from the bottom, and wait until it's almost dry again. The wet/dry cycle helps prevent bud rot.

Dry an inch down might not be as good of an indicator as lifting the pots, because the bottom might still have plenty of water. When you lift the pots you can distinctly tell if the soil is still waterlogged or if it's ready for a watering.

How often you have to water depends a lot on your environment, but for me, when they start needing water daily I slip one out of the container to check the roots and see if they are ready for bigger containers.
