HELLLLPPPPPP i have spider mites! [View all]

.. I have never finished a plant indoor before but due to the forest fires and heavy smoke here in Wash we had NO SUN so I had to rush my plants (all diff grow cycles) indoors and turn my shower into a grow room.

I have started plants in there before but never had to flower them artificially. So one 2 foot plant died...I have 2 more taller and two more smaller. The Bigger ones looked funny so DUH I put on my glasses and discovered the webbing. NOT as bad as some pix I looked at but plenty enough to make the leaves mottled. So I get the organic 'not harmful to humans and pets' spray... and sprayed all the surfaces of all the plants and the dirt. I see no more bugs or webbing.

My question......IF I get all of them now and stop this now... will my plants recover? will I have a harvest this year? I know that even just one mite will make a comeback so I may be spraying up until harvest..IF I get a harvest.
