The little white bit is the taproot. Sounds like you could have a ventilation problem - get some air movement with a fan.

It's either too humid, you're watering too much, or you don't have any air circulation. I'd bet it's a combination of all three of those things.

1. Water only when the soil is completely dry all the way through

2. get a fan to blow on your plants. This will improve airflow and help strengthen the stems.
