One really sad plant HELP!!! PICS

This is my second grow so still quite new to this. I am growing 4 plants. They are all doing pretty well except for one. We are on mid week 3 now and for the last 3-4 days its been getting super droopy. I dont think its over watered or over fed but I did put a touch of nutes in the water this time. The temps are low 80's. Any ideas? All help would be much appreciated! Thanks!

Under watering also looks something like that, but to my eye it does look like overwatering. Try giving it nothing for a week and see how it does if there's a possibility you might have been over-nurturing...

When you water, do you make sure the whole pot full of soil is soaked? I'm kinda assuming it can't be underwatering, because the fix for that is so simple and quick. PLants that are dropping because they are thirsty recover within 6-12 hrs of getting a good soaking..
 
I normally water every 4 days or so. I normally put my finger in about an inch and if its dry I water. I think it probably is due a water tomorrow night. Should I hold back or give it a go?

Thanks for your help :)

Sure, every 4 days sound a lot for small plants in a big pot, but just remember that you can get patches of soil which take a while to soak up water properly, so if you only water quickly and a little, then you might not ever be getting enough water into the soil. Unlikely perhaps, but worth me checking..

When I water, particularly if its a big pot, I'll do it gradually, starting with a little. Then leaving that to fully soak in. Then a bit more. And so on until eventually you start seeing it coming out the bottom...then you add some more for good measure (I usually get 10% runoff when I water this way).

If I were you, I'd test them by picking them up and feeling the weight. Soil can get pretty damn lightweight, so if it's at all heavy then it may still be soaked right in the middle.
 
Your right, they actually are pretty heavey! I guess it is over watering!

Ill hold off until they are light again and the hopefully she will pick up.
