I was at Ink Blue (the darkest blue, even darker than Soot Black) this morning and I decided to feed one Apple. I did receive the Feathers message from the one apple.... 6 hours later, no change. I thought the apple would do it because Soot Black has slightly more Red than Ink Blue and less blue as well. Ink Blue and Soot Black are so similar on the RGB scale that I think I am very close.

Ink Blue - 22 26 34
Soot Black - 37 35 30

So it seems like I need to lower the blue further and keep red slightly higher than green and maybe get them a bit higher?

Now, this is the most recent feeding at Ink Blue to try and aim for soot black.

This is now the 6th feeding session. Will report back later in 6 hours.

If you can remember, can you post what fruit you used to get to Ink Blue from the starting color?

Being on my 6th feeding session, I don't have an exact recipe for you, I'm sorry. You get the deep blue by going heavy on Berries, but also on Pears and Apples to keep your Blue levels in check. If your blue is too high then you end up with more common blues you've already seen on this thread.
