I'd start with a 50/50 mix of 3% H2O2 and spray some larf underneath and see how it takes it. If it shows no damage I'd do the whole plant (wear a mask!). You should probably take the plant out and spray down the tent as well. And clean the fan as spores can live all over the place.

Depending on the type of mold, you can spray the tent and fan with isopropyl alcohol or vodka too. Not on the plant though as alcohol melts trichomes.

Wear a mask when spraying, as none of this belongs in your lungs, and the ER is not a good place to be right now :).

Nice shade of green! Is that a bit of powdery mildew on the foreground leaf on the right side in the lower pic?
 
Oh sorry, I was thinking mold and not mildew. I'm fighting PM now as well and trying a number of things. I take back what I said about the H2O2 since I didn't find it helpful on PM last summer (works on mold though!). I'm having some success with milk and water mixed 1:3 (like 4 ounces milk and 12 ounces water) in a spray bottle and covering the whole plant. I do it in mid-day because the light is supposed to activate the milk. Once every 5 days seems to be keeping it under control.

I would still do the tent with iso though.

Thanks so much I'll try that I've been trying to keep it off the leaves some I cut and some I'm trying to wipe off very carefully I dont want to cut to many sun leaves off my ladies I dont want them to naked :rofl: :rofl:
 
Leave the fans on! I spray the whole plant because I find that PM likes to work its way into the sugar leaves if left alone.
 
As soon as you touch it the spores go flying. Spraying them kills them in place.
 
No, but plants need airflow anyway!
 
Break the tent down? Just put a mask on and spray it down, then turn a fan on it to dry it out,
