help! plant broke!!

[katzore]

ok. so i got a white widow clone from a clinic about 5 days ago. 4 days ago my half assed light fixture broke and fell on my clone. when i purchased the clone, it was 6 inches high. the light fixture broke the whole plant via the trunk(1 inch from the soil). so literally the whole plant. my heart dropped. the past 3 days i tried saving it by keeping it in a dixie cup of water about an inch high, with a bit of nutrients from the original soil given with the clone. i currently have it 12" from a 6500K fluorescent light bulb(properly made this time..haha) in a homemade 20 gallon trash can growing cabinet. 1 air vent with PVC. and completely surrounded with tinfoil. the growcan (i like to call it) also has another 6 inch banana kush clone in great health.
my question is....
-what should i do next to save it? it sounds weird but i have a bit of a green thumb and great luck with plants. btw, it's my first grow. in the past 5 days that white widow plant almost died 2 times and i managed to preserve it each time so i know it was meant to stay alive :thumbsup: (the other time was i had it too close to the lamp and it wiltered so bad it looked already dead)
PLEASE HELP

the only way i could think is to get some root gel and get it back into some kind of growing medium if its not to late that should work good luck

Don't know how to help u with keeping it alive but, move ur light 2 inches away from plant and tin foil isn't a good reflector. Paint it flat white. Good luck. P.s I'm on a cell phone so might not be a pretty post

aight. ill move it 2 inches away. don't got the gell. too broke
i can't really paint cuz im broke and can't afford it. literally.

so i guess i'll just prop it in some most soil and then into a red party cup.

so i put it 2 inches away from the light. ended up almost killing it. it wiltered so bad i dunno if it'll survive. so i just put it back to it's normal position where it was comfortable at about a foot.

I've broken a few stems, and usually as long as the broken sides are touching, it will heal up. However, I've never busted it at the base of the stem so IDK. Just tape it together and if the leaves aren't dying as the days go by, it will heal.
