Hmm... I still gotta go with my hypothesis just because the only plant that I applied the rotten leaves contracted the disease and within a few days of application.

I don't doubt that it could also be air-borne but it appeared that the disease started at the base of the plant. Maybe it was something other than fusarium. I don't know.
