What is 'dry planting?'

Tank is empty and only the substrate is wet. It provides the plants an opportunity to grow roots prior to submerging.
I think there’s an 1in of water above the substrate in the tank. I also added a thin layer of peat under the sand. The sand is from the 220g and has sat in buckets for several weeks and stinks. There will be quite a bit of ammonia released.
