The methods may be different but the cultural needs of the plant will not be different. It's still the same plant and they will still have the same cultural needs. The specific methods used by different growers in different parts of the world differ, one person may grow indoors, another outdoors, one may grow it mounted while another grows in a pot, etc., etc., etc., but the plants will still all have the same cultural needs. My kingies are outside all year round and our winters are cool (days 10-15C, nights 5-10C) and rainy. My kingies get watered all winter long.
The more you describe what the source says the more it sounds like it is describing nobile-type culture. What are your sources?

Since kingies do not require a dry winter rest (they do need a cool winter though) I'd continue watering it normally eventhough in s/h.
