help.
I have taken care of an outdoor Juniper for almost 1 year. About 3 weeks ago, it was under-watered. So far, it has been resiliant to short lapses (as bad as they are to do). Now, even with careful attention to watering and a moderate fertilizing (peterson's 20-20-20) it hasn't improved (probably worsened).
Big problem is that it will not retain moisture. I have primarily brought it indoors and put it over a humidifier in addition to misting it constantly. Still, even the healthy looking growth is drying out rapidly even while remaining green.
Otherwise, new growth is still olive green. Could this be a root problem or disease? Not too much time left. Below is a link to pictures of it. The bottom ones show the overall problem best.
Last thing is I'm still getting green by scratching the trunk, so I don't believe it's gone yet. Any help will be appreciated.

Best, and Thank You.
