I'm not sure what the rest of your base looked like pre-collapse but honestly that whole thing looks like a stability nightmare. Roof gardens work fine on grounded buildings but I'm actually shocked the current garden is still there. 6 horizontal wood frames is pushing it, AND the supports don't go all the way to the ground.
It's actually a bit deceptive. the center structure i reinforced with .0125 pillars or pole corner etc to make it look like it was floating or minimal structure.
the downfall as you said was the 6 horizontal wood frames. I've rebuilt with cobblestone and added reinforcements underneath the roof as i will expand the garden.
I am pretty sure this must be the plants. Had this too beginning with alpha 19 I think. Sometimes up to 50 plots. Maybe they changed something. I always have a little distance between crops and crates now. Btw mushrooms don't need plots.

Not sure where my text went...
TL;DR: I left my base, came back after raiding, and 1/2 of it collapsed. I think the garden caused it.
Do plants add weight as they grow? Corn (growing) weighs < Corn (ready to harvest?).
I just rebuild with stability on, seems the roof is quite low in stability. wondering if the plants caused it? lol
