Spider mites leave 100s of tiny white dots in the leaves and webs everywhere, both of which I can not see.

Hello. Turn up your fans. The Mites are still there but it's hard for them to make their webs and the population doesn't explode. Dilute 3% Hydrogen Peroxide to 1% and spray on all leaves top and bottom. Repeat every 3 days. 50% iso alcohol with 50% water and a couple of squirts of dish soap. Test this one first on some lower leaves. If there is no difference in 6 hours then spray but don't get any on the roots. Works best when there is little resin showing, the alcohol can strip the resin off. On some cotton balls put some eucalyptus oil and place on the branches where the most mites are found. The smell drives them away. Or if you want, Spinosad kills everything and is good for organic too, but leaves a funky taste on the buds. Don't use neem, it leaves residue too. Good Luck. Chuck.
