Mani~ your conditions are probably really humid if I'm not mistaken. Does this new Cattleya of yours already have established roots? You can top dress with spagh moss, but watch carefully because Cattleyas do not like to have their roots constantly wet. You want to be able to wet and soak the roots and let it dry out evenly at a good steady, yet quick pace. I would recommend filling with bark.
