Pleurothallis Solium is getting red/brown
Default Pleurothallis Solium is getting red/brown

Hello everyone,

I think I need some help here. My Pleurothallis Solium I bought four months ago is slowly turning red which makes it look unhealthy to me.
It does flower and it does make new shoots but the overall look is getting worse.
What I found on Google is that it maybe gets to much light. I give the plant 1100 fc for 12 hours a day and that is as low as I can go in my growbox. If I want to give it less light I have to de-mount the plant and pot it, in that way I can give it a place were it would get 600-800 fc.
RH is 85-90% and temperature is 10-23C (55-75 F)

Another thing I noticed is that some plants i have are a little glossy and shiny when I buy them but after a while (under my LEDs) they are loosing there gloss and turn dull or matt.

I added some pics to make it more clear, first pic is after I bought it, second is after a while and the last five are recent.
