Your a funny man, you know your supposed to water your plants right?

And to your question, yes she will probably make it, just water less and leave her another 6-7 months and she'll probably recover.

On a serious note tho, there is no info in this post except the clear pot(a nono), the überdry soil and the evil bulb that supposedly killed it, first i would read this(click) then
i would proceed to fill out this form(click).

And to any mods reading; this is yet another reason to make a clear howto for infirmary posts and newgrowers questions.

yeah, I would just top it, LST it, and wait it out, all the while feeding it 3x strength with every watering. Looks like she'll throw a bow, easy.

Lol man, you have to admit this is pretty funny, a year from now you will consider this a joyful moment :D

A tip for next batch of seedlings, keep the soil moist at all times, not saturated but make sure that its moist, seedlings have poor roots and do not handle dryouts that well. When your plants get older its another matter tho, but first things first.

yep it's toast

hey man at least it was a freebie so nothing lost - and at leaat you didnt kill it after a month or two and waste lots of time.

you'll get it sorted next time. better to use cheep seeds if you can afford it of an easy variety. unknown bagseed could be anything - like tropical sativa that will be a nightmare to handle.

cheers
