I have yet to post here, and I'm sort of jumping in without all of my previous theory and feed, but I have nowhere else to turn.
I feel like i am on the edge of unlocking soot black. for the last 6 feeds i have been getting closer and closer and the RGB Value. and the color result has been closer and closer and closer with every feed.

I really apologize for not recording the fruit I've used until now... I took a laid back approach at first thinking id figure it out but once i was getting "Close Close" i decided its time to come to this Experimentation thread.
So here are my results without the fruits (for the most part. honestly should have been writing them down but ill record what i remember.)

Desert Yellow: (fruit lost to human memory >_<)
-
Sunset Orange: (1 Berry 1 Apple 1 Pear proc on each i think)
-
Colibri Pink: (about 8 Apple and 8 Berries. cannot remember procs)
-
Dalamud Red: (This is where it gets fuzzy and i was just giving him several fruits. however this was mostly Apples and Berries again. I was avoiding any Lightening fruit at the time.
-
Hunter Green: (Our FC finished growing Pears for this feed. as an Experiment I used one Plum to start the feed (Proc message) and then 10 Pears (all Procs).
-
Morbol Green: (This time around I was REALLY following RGB values and no longer feed more than 3 fruits to a feed. but to get this Morbol Green I used one of every light fruit and one of every dark fruit as an experiment. the result is that the RGB values for Hunter green and Morbol Green are so similar, using one of every fruit slightly varied the values enough to change the color so slightly.

At this point i realized its time to feed very few fruits. and see the results. Careful Synthesis if you will

Today:

Deepwood Green: This Green is Devastatingly close to Soot black in both color and RGB value.


Deepwood Green Value is: R:25 G:36 B:28
Soot Black value is : R:37 G:35 B:30

So now I'm only feeding single fruits to balance this out.
I think my next feed will be a Single Mamook Pear. (to darken the green a Tiny bit and light the red and blue a tiny tiny bit.

I think this next feed may result in the illusive black people are looking for, which led me to post on this thread.. Ill report after but I would really like some insight. or some advice on what steps I should take or if I as close as I think I am because... I feel really close.
