I have had a somewhat boring green chalice for about 8 months now. Nice and healthy. It is one of the chalice that actually grow so there is no fancy colors to it. Actually I would have to say it has doubled in size. Now I ask about giving it more light for two reasons. Currently it is on the sandbed under 150W MH. First reason I am thinking of moving it up. As it grows right on the edges of it it get baby blue lines almost like stretch marks but they are only on the the first 1/4" of the edge. Second it is a beautiful green almost the color of grass, well maintaied grass, but also like grass I have noticed a couple of small spots that are a little dark or have almost a reddish/brown color to them. Has anyone had luck giving their chalice a little more light and getting better colors out of it?
