I think it'll be fine, it might not have had a good first day, but it looks fine. Give it a bit of food and that should help it out.

...it's been almost a week. I'll try to do some direct feeding though. I'm happy that it is still opening up all the way.

Thanks for your help!

What lights do you have?

It looks good to me definitely not dead, some target feeding will help for sure.

I have 3ft High Output T5s (1 actinic and 1 10,000k). Like I said, my Hammer is doing great. I was just told that this was a "green" torch. It looked metallic green all closed up but open it is a washed out color

I think its just the light. My hammers are green when they are closed up but its washed out when they are open. Same case :P
