If I can pipe in with a watering question as I've just got my first mounted orchid. This thread has answered most of the questions I had, but I have just one more as I'm so new to this

Should I water by pooring water over it. Or should it be dunked for a short while?

Mine is a Miltonia spectablis (it's the summer project plant) and it has very fine roots. There is a small amount of moss just under the roots which absorbs some water, but not all the roots are touching that.

I'm just unsure whether running water over it will give it enough water, or whether it needs chance to absorb more than that by dunking it.
