Why is the bottom of my stem thinner than the top? Plant is starting to get heavy and now it's leanin.:wall:
 
yeah it happens more light near the top = more growth there .. put some side lights on it if its really bad
 
Why do I need to transplant?

Roots grow outward for stability, so they naturally collect at the edges of the container and leave much of the soil in the middle of the pot unused. This will cause slowed growth because the roots may restrict each other. Transplanting allows for a more efficient root mass, as the space in the middle of the final container will be used.

Allowing the roots to collect at the edges of your 1-gallon pot, will ensure a more efficient root mass when transplanting to a 3-gallon pot. Each time you transplant, you can also bury the plant up to the first node or branch to shorten it's overall height.
this may help it may need to be transplanted...rob
 
this is normal, the bottom will start to beef up soon just keep your plant close to the light. you can also use a oscillating fan to strengthen the stems.
