Don't. "assumed_gamma" is not intended for artistic purposes.

With POV-Ray 3.6, you should always use "assumed_gamma 1.0", and with 
POV-Ray 3.7 you should leave out the "assumed_gamma" entirely. (Make 
sure to set the Display_Gamma and, in case of POV-Ray 3.7, File_Gamma 
INI parameters properly.)

If your grass looks too dark, instead toy around with the color (if you 
picked it from Photoshop or the like, raise the RGB values to the power 
of 2.2), the ambient parameter and/or the lighting.
