will she last long enough to cone clone?

Hello all
A few weeks ago I was handed a clone without being properly prepared for her and it's been an uphill battle since. I have her under 4x t5's, 2x 6500k and 2x 5000k. She was in soil when I got her. Went to the hydro store, told the lady my situation, she sold me sensi grow a+b and I used as direct, 1ml/L for clones/seedlings. She started looking yellow and curling, flushed her, and been giving her just tap water since, i added a humidifier in the room and got all my materials ready for hydro for her clones. Since I gave her the little sensi grow, she has done very little growing and im worried that she may not make it long enough to clone and put in hydro. There a PIC of one day after her watering with the nuts, i cut the dead part off a few days later to keep an eye on if the yellow was spreading, and the other pic is 10 days later, today... Any help and advice would be amazing thanks!

doesn't look good. It is not so hard man, cuttings need two things, oxygenated water and a bit of light.
Heck, I'm rooting one in a fish tank right now, has some java moss growing on wood that sticks up above the water. Just stuck the cutting in there, it is nice and sterile and produces fresh oxygen right at the roots. The cutting almost looks happier than it did on the plant.

Well you were right. She was not doing good at all. The clone that I received was nothing more then a cutting. Cut, planted in a pot, and just handed to me. I took her out of her pot last night and ffigured I'd try transplanting her to my hydro setup, upon doing so, I saw nothing more then a cut stem, not one root. It's been 2 weeks since I received her and I'm surprised she lived this long. I cut her at a 45, scraped her edges a bit, put her in the hydroton, gave her a humidity dome, and will be surprised if she lives another day or two. At least I now see what the issue was and hopefully she bounces back, otherwise a very good lesson learnt.
