Could be that the buds developing are too jeavy for the branches, could be the start of a calcium deficiency that can cause weak stems. Try some calmag and supporting the buds before the stems break.

What Happened?!?!What happened!? Everything was fine under 60 W lamp, last night I started my regular 18 hour cycle with my big light, woke up this morning to see the gelato OG had fallen over, could this be from the light? The other seem to be doing OK. Added one of the blueberry for compare
