Over drying is bad for the microbes, bad for the ecosystem of soil, bad for the roots and def stressful but people do dry batch watering if they are doing semi hydro and promoting the plant to do such, are u running organics? Since soil is prolly capped u might wanna put a tray under each pot and let the plants/soil absorb it otherwise it’s gonnea runoff quickly and not really absorb if that dry. if u don’t have try’s water lil but in and than poke little holes with a hand rack/bamboo or w/e and that will let the medium absorb when capped. Ite good to let ur plants search and promote to search for water but key is once you have well established roots in pot size u should be letting the medium be light but not too dry and than water . lif your pots when they are fully saturated than relist per day and you’ll def know when the plant/medium needs it. if you transplant into to big of pot and water to often your gonnea promote bad root system and also many over watering issues. So my suggestion for current is like above, since wilting water in, if it’s runoffing too fast and ur medium is inputting it thn u might have to have water in trays/foood table and let them absorb or multi times water and poke lil holes so the water will break the medium dry cap
