Use a toothpick or other to help the stem stay up. Make sure you're not overwatering or feeding nutes and try to get the light as close as you can to the plant, watch for heat.

it needs moist but not wet soil, but it looks like its a lighting problem, its stretching to get to the light.

what are you using

i had the same thing happen in my first grow. probly two problems. put the light asa close as you can without burning the plant. seriously like 3 inches with cfl's. and don't water it everyday. let the soil get dry then water it. when the soil dries it make the roots grow out to look for water.

Stand it back up and cover most of that stem in soil, only have about 3/4" of that stem comming out the soil, move your lights alot closer and you and the plant will be fine
