I love milts too! I don't think many people grow them though. I give mine lots of light, it is in a south facing window with a sheer curtain. It gets about as much light as it will tolerate; the leaves are slightly pink at the tips. During the summer I keep mine outside in a shady location. I live in Montreal Canada, but the summers are still pretty hot. I read that temperatures over 30 degrees celcius is too warm, though a few days here and there won't hurt. From September to June, mine is indoors, with average household temperatures.
Gloria/Lagoon has helped me out quite a bit, and has given me lots of information!
