Seriously though step 1 would be make sure you have proper ventilation in your tent(you most likely dont) do you turn off your fans(inc centrifugal fan?) When lights go out?

Do not worry friend I've had this problem far too often. The best thing you can do moving forward is weekly preventitive sprays basically from now on cause once you're infected you're unfortunately infected bad and the disease has been there for a good week or more so those spores are everywhere.
Get yourself some Plant Therapy from Lost Coast and soak the plants down bottom to top of all leaves and stems and buds @ 1oz/gallon of water. You can buy the stuff at any hydro store or even Amazon/eBay.
For an instant knockdown you can use 3% hydrogen Peroxide (h2o2) diluted in half in a spray bottle making 1.5% solution, spray down all plant surfaces and buds with the lights off and let air dry. The h2o2 will wipe out any existing fungus growth and sterilize the buds. h2o2 converts back to h2o really fast so you don't have to worry about it being unsafe.. There are some outdoor growers that legit dunk their entire buds into bathes of water/h2o2 solution to kill off any contaminants.
You'll want to make a plan where you spray your plants down entirely all at the same time every Monday or whatever day works for you, literally do not skip a week and you won't see mold again.
I've started using Regalia CG with Plant Therapy as my Preventive Treatment weekly. I spray every Monday right after my grow lights turn off for the day. Regalia CG I cut out once the plants are in mid bloom because I dont want it affecting flavor or quality of my bud. I haven't had any problems using Plant Therapy, it can be used a week before harvest.
Regalia CG is a safe bio-fungicide that is relatively new. It claims to induce a defense response in the plant that makes it stronger and more prone to diseases like powdery mildew. They also claim higher yield but I'd like to see that proven in a sterile environment. Of course not having diseased plants will increase yield..
I haven't had Powdery MIldew since spraying weekliy with Regalia CG and the plants are definitely greener and healthier looking in veg especially. CG = "Cannabis Grade".

I pay $100 per gallon of this stuff and it is used at 1oz/gal. You can pair their other products with it to have pest management too. Personally plant therapy does that for me with the natural oils in it.

You can clean the tent itself with h202, but just be sure to clean everything again once your plants finish. Regalia is a great product for prevention, Southern Ag Biological Fungicide is another-they compliment each other well. Prevention is key for your next grows, since you have it now...PM is insidious and tends to reappear even after you've cleaned like a maniac. You can use potassium bicarbonate spray on your plants now as a treatment, but it's also good as a preventive measure. I like to alternate between the biological fungicide, potassium bicarbonate, and neem/silica sprays each week-and regalia if I can afford it. Good luck bud!
You can also use Regalia for active infection. It kept a table of Bodhi Lucky Charm clones that I needed for genetics alive.

As the instructions say double it for active infection.
Oh I see the OP Is in the UK. Call around it's worth the price and aggravation finding it.
I too wish him the best of luck finishing the grow.
