Look up powdery mildew.

Diluted H2o2 spray will kill it nicely. You'll have to really get it saturated. Hit it two nights in a row. It will come back as long as conditions for germination are good because new spores will land on your plant. Very correctable.

What % do i mix 50/50 or 90/10.. also it wont hurt flowers right
Depends on the hydrogen peroxide mix you start with. I use 30% strength and I think the ratio is one tablespoon per gallon of water. You can google hydrogen peroxide for gardening and find proper mix ratios for 3%, etc. I'd send you a link if I was on my laptop. Does not harm the plant at all, very safe in flower as it breaks down quickly into water and a free oxygen molecule.

50/50 ratio of water and milk will take care of PM but it looks like your a little ways into flower and the mildew is practically on the buds so that's a tough call. Milk tho does wonders on PM.

As bugeye mentioned it will come right back if you don't improve the environment.

Defoliate, add more air circulation, control humidity etc

I use green cure which works ok. Pretty much just brand name baking soda.

Pretty much everything hurts the flowers in my opinion, but pm will hurt them far worse.
 
Yeah plants are outdoor so cant really change mother nature... ive tried h202 and water but its not helping much.. its mostly water with only a few teaspoons of 3% but thats what i looked up... would love to find another solution cause this plant smells killer i would hate to lose it especially with pm not really bad.... yet that is...lol..

Thanks

Not sure what your view of not that bad yet is, but that bud in the pic is trash. Thats not salvagable.

Outdoors you'll need to defoliate any buds or leaves not getting good light and thin out the plant for better airflow.
