Hormonal disarray caused by too many nodes too close together, all fighting for dominance in an open field.
You need to clip off every other node, starting with the one below the top shoot. Watch carefully for a few days, as the top may continue to spit close nodes, trim those as they appear.
This is a common occurrence with "slow" clones, and it's best to watch and stay ahead of the condition. Generally, the plant will outgrow this phase, but will lack structure and vigor in the long run, so surgery is the best course of action.
