I currently have 15 plants 5 weeks old, 3 weeks into veg. I found clear signs of powder mildew on 6 of them and sprayed sulfur and lime spray on those 6. Unfortunately i dont have a camera right now so i cant upload pics. But anyway, should I throw away the infected plants or try and keep them growing?

that's a crap shoot. chances are good that everything's contaminated, in which case you have to treat the problem, which is a bitch ... had it take out squash, watermelon, and others one summer.

on the other hand, if they haven't been contaminated - slim to none i would say on that - you'll save everything definitely by removing the contaminated ones.

if you have a way to separate those known to be infected from the maybes, that would probably be your best bet to see if all is done.
