roots do not like wet nor dry. Damp is best. Alot depends on the medium and set up you are using along with the nutrients. I designed a organic usda certified fert for hydro and aero so if you got question about nutes I know a bit.
www.gorillagrow.org if your interested there are some facts on there about ferts but I will be adding more. Dont mean to be addy just offering a hand
One love
