Default Miltonia new roots covered up?

My only successful miltonia two months after flower finally has a mid size growth that began new roots. Should I cover them up with wet moss? Or just spray water daily?

When did you last repot it? What is the humidity? The leaves are slightly pleated. That means it isn't getting enough water.

Repot about a month ago.
The baby roots are new and I am unsure to cover them with media or not.

ask your supervisor! Looks like he/she is paying close attention
Put him/her in touch with Ginger cat in Australia - he has loads of experience.

All joking aside it's nice to see those new roots!

If the humidity is high they will find the new medium on their own. If it's low I would put more of your current medium around the base of the new growth.
