Powdery mold is a form of pythia, i had it when i was trying to grow inside a cabinet. it is a air born spore and it can travel from your garden, into your house. their are a couple of things you can do.
option #1 first, go to your local tool rental place and see if they have a sulfur burner. if u treat the entire house you will have a better chance of getting rid of it completely. you are probably really careful but if you carie the plants threw the house to your garden and the powdery mold comes off and settles into the carpet. you have it in your carpet and it will keep spreading.
option #2 go to your local hydro store and get some neem oil and safer soap 1 oz of
oil and 1 oz of soap mix well in a sprayer with 1 gall water. spray entire plant top to bottom, stems and bottoms of leafs. treat again if mold reappears, more then likely the mold will be gone. but it can regrow on fresh sprouts/ new growth that has not been treated.

here ya go.........
if you're concerned with mildew, first take preventative measures.
have a clean room.(sterilize between harvests)
don't allow temps below 20C at night.
give your plant some room for breathing, make sure that there is ample air movement throughout ALL of your garden.
spray with safers soap or other sulphur based sprays.
get a sulphur burner. burn when your lights are off, even an hour or two a week is effective. i bought one off of ebay for fifty bucks.
trust me, if you see pm on your leaves pull everything out of the room, remove the infected areas of the plant and spray the sh*t out of your leaves and stalks until they are dripping. spray the walls and floors as well. repeat the process for next week and follow the above preventative measures.
i have battled the sh*t out of mold in the past and would suggest that you should be pro active to avoid crop damage/loss.
hope this helps.
