Do u have small fans to blow wind at them that helps building strength on the stems

Try giving your plant some silica . It will help strengthen the stems.

Looks beautiful and healthy to me. Are you watering too much? I stick my fingers in soil to first knuckle to ensure I feel nothing wet to ensure it's ok to water.

I found this with a strain recently, increasing the light intensity helped during veg but when it came to harvest they were still a little weak. Try adding some silica to your nutrient schedule, this should help increase strength in the stems...Good luck

Stem Damage in High Winds/Tropical StormsI live in Thailand, it's very hot a the moment so we are prone to tropical storms. When this happens it's very windy.
I am concerned this will cause damage to the stem of the plant/s. Is it advisable to use a stake to support the plant stem, or will the plant just deal with it?
