What's this white stuff on my pepper?

I have a Poblano that I overwintered from last year. It did fine for a while, and then I've been beating it up in a long and tiring war on aphids (been spraying with a pine soap solution). I finally got rid of the little bastards, but half the plant went with them (leaves went wet for too long, basically rotted).

As it's starting to look good again, I'm noticing that some of the stems have white fungus-looking stuff on them. I looked up powdery mildew, but it seems to be affecting leaves only? Has anyone got any idea what this might be, and how to treat it?
