Do I use the whole canes after separating them from each other at the
bottom, or just a portion of the canes?

Any specific recommendations as to how much of the cane should be buried in
the potting mix?

Also, if I use a bed of sphagnum moss, I suppose I should keep the moss
moist, correct?

Thanks in advance...

Dendrobium backbulbs will frequently throw new shoots which will root. You
can stake it in a small clay pot (for the weight) with a well drained mix
and only mist until new growth shows. Alternately you can lie the canes
down on a bed of spaghnum. Many joints should throw keikis (new young
plants) which can then be detached and grown on their own. If the canes
are yellow or soft just toss them as they won't grow anything.
