Went away for the weekend, came back to find my plant like this. Anyone know what went wrong so I know what to look out for next time? Thanks!

I've skipped watering plants grown in coco for TWO WHOLE DAYS (huge no-no by the way), the coco was bone-dry and my plants showed ZERO wilt.

I think you're experiencing a root problem.
 
You could be right but, I from the looks of 1 pot, it looks VERY low on the amount of soil. How old are the plants? What size pots are they? Looks low on soil. Root bound? Not enough water? A lot of unknowns.

Pot is about 3/4 full with soil, germinated the seed in February, in week 6/7 of flowering now (very small size already established to be a lighting issue which I am fixing). For reference this is my first grow and I was definitely learning as I went, but this collapse happened pretty suddenly. Definitely not root bound, and if anything the soil stayed moist a little too long between waterings despite it being very well-draining. Pot is 10” diameter.
 
I highly doubt your blurples did that to your plants. What temps and humidity are you running? Do the pots your using drain? Can't see the bottoms. Are you pulling air from your tent? Where is the fresh air coming from?

Well there seems to be two issues, one with the overall underdevelopment of the plant which after getting help on here seems to be due to insufficiently powerful lighting. Second is all this shriveling, which may be because I moved the lights closer to the plant but seems like it could also be overwatering? The pots drain, and yeah I have a fan pulling air from the tent which is keeping things cool, but I don’t have a thermometer/humidity meter so can’t give exact measurements. Fresh air isn’t coming through any intake specifically, but the tent isn’t airtight and I make sure to open the tent pretty regularly to make sure fresh air gets in.
 
Have you been flooding that coco with a lot of runoff?
Because it looks like salt/nutrient build up from allowing coco dry out and insufficient lighting means the plant can’t consume the amount of feed it is receiving
 
Based on what you can tell me. If you left it alone Fri,Sat,Sun. It's in the 6 to 7 week of flower. No one opened your tent for 3 days and that's how you say that you get fresh air to your tent. Lack of water in a undersized pot. Get a hydrometer I use 3 in 1 tent. Very important to know relative humidity and temps when growing. Your buds are undersized, that looks due to not enough light. At least 30 to 35 wall watts is what you are looking for.
