Re: Ricordea Yuma losing color - turning white ? Why

I would go with the fact that store you purchased it from had it under MH's and now that you have it home and under a less intense lighting your seeing this result of a loss of color. Even if you have it close to your light source that doesn't mean it receiving the same PAR as what a halide produces and there by you have this problem.
