What causes it so you can avoid it :
White Powdery Mold is usually caused by too much humidity in a closed area or not enough airflow
If plants are kept close together in an enclosed space without air circulation, this can be a breeding ground for white powdery mold.
Plants which are very leafy, or which have lots of leaves touching each other, are more prone to WPM. Therefore pruning old leaves that are no longer needed can sometimes help prevent WPM.
Carefully wipe mold off affected leaves using plain water
Afterwards, make sure you have good air circulation moving over your plants(like with a fan) and a working exhaust fan. Fresh, clean, moving air will prevent powdery mold
Get SM-90. Mix 1 part SM-90 to 5 parts water and spray your leaves right before lights out time. You can repeat if you see further outbreaks, but SM-90 often works with just one application. If SM-90 isn't available where you live, then neem oil is a great alternative (though it doesn't smell as nice as citrusy fresh SM-90).
