Hi

I have a wooden shed.

The north-east corner gets hardly any sun(neighboring buildings) and the interior roof in that corner is badly affected by damp. which seems to be worse this year. In that corner there is drops of water in cobwebs. metal rusts. and there is condensation on plastic sheet wall, I am pretty sure certain there is no leak.

The plywood roof( i think its plywood) changed color and is damp. A White "mold" grows on it
if I don't leave it alone.

What Can I treat interior roof with?

This is not due to a lack of sun, and painting it will achieve nothing either.

You have water getting in somewhere. Possible seeping up via a break in the water proof covering via capillary action. Examine the outside and reseal would be my advice.
