Hey, it looks to me that shes a little dry.

I have one question for you, what kind of soil are you using? It looks (I stress looks) like the same soil as me, moisture control miracle grow soil. If so it is very high in peat moss. It took me a while to understand that the top will sometimes appear wet but a lil deeper tends to dry out. I didnt think it was possible but I guess it is.

My suggestion is to water the shit out of her with a couple drops of your nutes in the water. The plant should bounce back within 24 hours if its not too late (aka dry and shriveled).

*edit* Also, try to wick-water them. By wick-water them I mean get a cup/bowl with water filled about the same level as your planter. Put the planter inside of this and water it from the bottom up. The water will fill the pot and be absorbed. This tends to be the best way to water smaller plants, especially if theyre in small enough containers.
