Coco didn't cause that problem, but i'm not trying to convince you to use coco. Many reasons exist not to use it. Not much you can do with flower present. Anything you spray that is truly effective will be bad for your lungs or extracts for sure. pyrethrines have a short half-life... maybe worth looking into.. if you have 3-4 weeks left, it may degrade in that time to be "safe enough."

I just dealt with the spider mites. I had to manually look at each leaf and remove any sign of eggs. Every day, I would scope the leaves to see if there was any signs of any further spider mites. If you find the unders of leaves infested On more than one leaf, you’re probably going to have a hard time. If it’s only one leaf, you just have to remain diligent for at least five days until there’s no further sign. I don’t use chemicals. For thrips, I use the blue and yellow sticky cards and I hang them over the canopy. Best of luck on your grow.
