Unfortunately, this is most common with overwatering.

You will want to treat with a fungicide, and cut back some of the longer growth.

If you have drainage holes to allow water out of the bottom and away from the container, then you can water once the top 2 inches of soil are completely dry.

If the container has no drainage, then you will want to wait until it is almost completely dry down to the bottom before watering again.
