If you are in it for the long haul buy some NeemOil and some liquid dish soap, the less additives the soap has the better. Mix one gallon of water(3.8 ltrs.) with 1 tblsp of Neem Oil (15ml) and one tblsp of dish soap. Mist your plants with this solution, paying special attention to the underside of the leaves. This is were the mites lay thier eggs. Reapply in three days, at one week and then weekly until harvest. This will cost about $20.00. For around 16 gallons.
For the short haul, go buy an insecticide that has Neem Oil in it, most of them do if they say they kill mites, around $8.00 for a quart. Follow the same schedule. Neem Oil is Not toxic to humans or animals, in these concentrations, usually around 3%, and that is one of the reasons for its wide use. I had to do this with my first large grow two weeks before harvest. There wasn't a problem with taste. VV
