Opinião

I use neem oil to kill the ones i had last time. Every 2 to 3 days I sprayed heavily everywhere with neem on plant. I let it sit about 30 mins. Then I rinsed it off. I did this for a week or 3 treatments. The process will kill off, and make them unable to breed as it's going. Just return plants to dry during dark times.

In my opinion, your plant is in a very delicate state. It's a matter of at least 2 weeks to recover. I think it will bounce back, but its yield will be affected. Spray your plant with neem oil 2 times a week to prevent issues.

Spider mites are a pain in the ass to kill. You need to nuke them with a pesticide containing Pyrethrum, that shit kills em dead. I would not have taken as many leaves off the plant as autoflowers can go into shock easily from stress. If they start flowering in the next week or two it might have been from this defoliation. in the future you can use a hose and spray the plants down outside, and even a simple soap and water mix will knock off most of the mites. plus it will keep the leaves on the plant and more leaves = more energy = more growth. Side note, you plants look to be getting to much nitrogen, might want to dial it back for a bit. IDK if its in need of a flush but its an option for down the road should it get worse. Good Luck!

If persons blood is bad, noone drains it out. So your move with defoliating auto that way is insane in my mind. You heal, not hide. Golden rule.
