Sure the wetter the better. When I was a kid and we were putting up silage I can remember that sorgum was all the rage. Real wet summer and when that stuff was in the silo water was squirting out from between the tile blocks! Water running down the sides of the silos. The drains around the silo were like a little river of juice going down the drain. Smelled like a beer factory. NOW there was a side benny to all of this. Couple of weeks later when the weather changed and dried up you could find night crawlers in the soil around the silos. They were HUGE!! Like 10 or 12 inches long and almost the diameter of a BIC pen. Looked like small brown snakes. Fish thought they were pretty good to. Most important thing with silage is a good seal. The better the seal the less spoilage. They used to have something in bags you tossed into the silo blower as you were filling. I suspect it was citric acid to boost the PH level. Less spoilage.
