i think its usually caused by a rapid increase in rain or maybe prolonged cloudy weather (weve had both and have it starting now too)

dont know if you can do a whole lot to prevent it, maybe cover the ground directly around the plants with plastic like a Christmas tree skirt, keeping some of the water away from soaking into the ground and getting taken up by the plant. take off when conditions improve. good luck!
