Pluck every single leaf that has it, then increase airflow , remove any branches, and pray 🙏. In my case mold usually I take the whole thing down . If someone who has lung cancer smokes something with mold on it , it can / will cause the cancer to spread at a increased rate . So be careful. Just get any sign of mold off the plant asap , get that humidity down below 40% rhm . Let me know if I can be off any further assistance. Feel free to message me ! I'm hear to help

Correct, a mix of 40% full cream milk and 60% water will zap white powdery mildew. Spray in direct sunlight, the milk enzymes that destroy the mildew need to be "activated" by light to work.

You can use baking soda as mentioned below but be aware that it will only kill those spores that it actually touches - so you've got to spray really well... be careful with THAT, however, that all the moisture doesn't lead to bud rot! One good way to get rid of the moisture, if you've got one, is to use a leaf blower from a ways away... It's been quite a year for fungus and rot and insects and wind damage and and and.... Good luck!

Use baking soda,1gr/L , this way the solution has about 8 pH, and kills the mold (it needs an acidic pH, the leaf in fact is about 5.5), spray it once every other day for about 1 week, it should work, if you notice that it leaves some sediment on the leaves it is normal, you can simply remove them with a tissue or wait for rain
