Not sure how to adjust this. Updated to 5.1 and now all my shadows are extremely dark under my foliage
This is fixed in 5.1 
This is 5.1? Um, I know its better than previous versions, but this is way too dark. Any way too adjust it? This ambient occlusion?
They had to ditch subsurface scattering for a while because it didn’t work with Lumen. But now it does. That’s what lets the light though to the ground ( assuming the material has it ).
I tried to enable nanite foliage but now I get flickering shadows… it did lift the shadow though
I don’t think you need Nanite foliage, it’s just that the SSS didn’t work before with 5.0
Oh I see… hmm interesting. I did notice a difference in the shadow

No matter what I try I cant lift the shadows. without hardware ray tracing when available there is no ambient occlusion
