A Little help with my clone taken from flower

I seem to be having a bit of a problem with a clone I took during flower. I took it pretty late (day 40) and I'm praying she survives. Yes, I know I should've taken earlier, but I originally had no plans of keeping the strain going (White Russian) and found out too late that my next strain was not going to happen.
Anyhow, my problem is this; the clone was cut about 30 days ago and had multiple roots after 9 days but has no new growth. I transplanted to FF Ocean Forrest 3 days after seeing the roots and haven't given the little one anything but small bits of water since the beginning. I have now placed the small pot the clone is in back under the dome thinking maybe it needs more humidity or something.
What do y'all think? Is she gonna make it? Should I start giving her small amounts of grow nutes or should the nutes already in the soil be enough for now?
I'll post a pic if need be, but I think everyone here has seen enough pics of clones from flower that mine really isn't any different, other than the fact that it's not dying or growing!

Can we get a little info on how the roots are now and if she is still healthy? Any pictures to help us figure it out?

It may take a while for it to get out of shock from being in flower and it takes flowering cuts much longer to root but it can be done..

Yeah dont take clones from a flowering plant. The clone has to try to root first then go back into veg and all that is very stressful and you may have it herm on you once you go to flower it if it even recovers.

No nutes, straight H2O until another set of leaves develops. Six weeks into 12/12 is the absolute wrong time to take clones. You would have been farther ahead by letting her finish flowering then do a re-grow. She should be done soon, so, when you go to harvest start trimming up top and work your way down. You want to leave a double handful of greenery around the base of the plant after harvesting. Re-veg for 3-4 weeks and re-flower as usual. You will get much more product faster and easier. Good luck, BigSteve.

I am trying to re-veg mama as well as she is done. Still haven't given any nutes. Roots are definitely still growing on the clone as I found some long, stringy ones with very little/gentle digging.
Like I said, I know I shouldn't have taken the clone so late, but I'm not really diggin' the White Russian. Smells like hay unless you cure FOREVER, buds are like little Velcro nugs, and although I dig the buzz, it doesn't
I was planning on going another direction, but finances got messed around and I don't sell what I grow, so hoping to keep these around as they're better than nothing.
I'll post a pic in a bit. Have to use crappy camera though because my DSLR is in the pawn shop :sad:
