Stalk is seemingly taking a "bend," and is getting worse. Kinda like it's lost some of its rigidity and has turned rubbery and is starting to fall over under its own weight and under influence of wind. Not severe yet, but it looks like something's wrong and unless it stops it may become a real problem.

Ideas?
Might be potassium shortage.
