What I have been taught is that cold water will actually send the roots into shock. And it can take upwards of an hour for the plant to fully recover. The latter is that warm water is less of a shock. Also depending on your media, moss based types will saturate more quickly and evenly with warm water. Especially if they are on the very dry side. Hope this helps.
