Regarding the rest, many people mistake "dry rest" as bone dry. This is not only incorrect but harmful for the plants.
These plants, well, of course the natural species, still get plenty of water during the winter. They just don't get rain on a lot everyday as they do during the summer months.
I water them good during the winter. As mentioned above, I do let them dry in between not because it promotes flowering but in fear of hurting the roots.
This is also what is recommended by Yamamoto Dendrobiums.
Regarding fertilizing schedules, my info also comes from Yamamoto. By following the advice of those who made and grow these plants, all is good and safe.
