Its because the stem is flimsy and the leaves are starting to weight it down, nothing to worry about this happend to me but fixes itself. I helped it by using something to support it like a little stick and i also used a mini fan to blow a slight breeze on it. This made it wiggle around resulting in the stem thickening

Carefully put something strong in the soil next to it 💪 to stand it up nicely, I used a chopstick 👌😂

Last week a couple of stems were going soft mid stem and becoming paper thin. Leaves all looked healthy. I think it was maybe a sign of over watering? Seems to be ok now but stunted the plant for about 5 days give or take. Would just like a rough idea to the causes.

How am I doing?It is my first growth, I'm fine even with 20g x plant. Unfortunately the last weeks have been quite cold and cloudy. Hope to be still on track. ->The stem seems quite small... so I had to add some earth as there was wind as well.

Stems on fan leaves weak The stems on those big leaves seem kind of weak and in general as the grow out they seem to be drooping a bit like they can’t support the weight well. Does this look like a problem and if so any thoughts? I do have a couple of fans in the tent providing some circulation.

Broke my baby plant So today was I suppose classic newbie messing with the plant too much. I thought I could sink the stem into the coco a little so that it has more support but ended up breaking the stem. I rescued with a mini wooden spoon, some wire and sellotape. Any advice welcome.

Is my light too far away from my seedling? What should I do to correct the bend and brown spots coming in on the plant? How often should I be watering my seedling and how much? You can see these deficiencies in my uploaded photos in my profile.

Snapped Plant One of my little guys was kinda snapped/snapped and peeled down a bit but not a full break in the stem. I created a little splint and taped it up and it’s kinda looked the same all day. Do you think it will survive or it a break of that kind at this size the end of it? 😢

I found out, my DWC system wasn't stable. This caused to much difference in temp/EC and PH. Now I"m sure I found the solution but, do you think I need to start over? 2 look very very bad. See pictures. I made 1 picture of each plant in te last serie. See the difference.

Seedling stem bending Any ideas as to why the stem is bending like this? Day 8, 2.75 inches tall, 33% humidity, 77f temp. The seedling did originally stretch but seems to have stopped in the last couple of days and focusing on growing leafs. Thanks in advance
