Unfortunately, your photo did not come through. It does sound like an infection. This is most likely due to soil that does not have a chance to dry out between waterings.

I would treat with a fungicide, then make sure that you wait until the soil is completely dry down to about 2 inches between waterings.

Here are some articles that will help:
