Bicalcarata light levels

[ilbasso]

Does anybody have any data for the optimum light levels for a bicalc? I rearranged my grow tent using the PAR meter app to keep this particular plant on the lower end of light levels, but I'm wondering if there's any consensus on what might be the ideal level?

Some of the best grown bical I've seen were at the Monkey Cup Garden in Penang. They were recieving dappled light through the trees. How that translates to artificial light I'm not sure exactly but they can reasonably take a decent amount of light

This is amazing!

Greymoss, what were the shadows like there? (Ex -- sharp-edged dark shadows, blurry-edged dark or faint shadows, no discernable shadows at all ....)
