Definitely a bug problem, probably spider mites but possibly thrips. Look carefully on the plant including the underside of the leaves. Spider mites are very small and usually require a magnifying glass to see easily.

Being in flower you don’t want to spray anything on your buds. There are such things as predatory mites but I’ve never used them. They attack the spider mites and not the plants. Other than that I’m hoping some other growers have ideas as I don’t have much experience with them on cannabis, especially in flower.

do the mites make it a total loss ? What are my options to harvest its close to being ready. I've had it in the dark the last 2 days
@jhpoppi Have you checked the trichomes mate? How close it she to harvest? You can wash the buds after harvest to get rid of the bugs left over.
If she is very close to harvest, turn the heat up a fuck load in the tent, go for over 30c. It might make the plant stress, but they are close to the end, but the buds will die in heat like that. Make the environment uncomfortable for them to live in.
If the plant has a few weeks left, you should get some predatory mites, they will eat the spider mites and eggs and that'll get rid of them
There close I think. Pics just taken
