Hello, so I have a plant that is in its second week of flowering and totally infested with spider mites. Can it be saved and how?

AND That plant has contaminated 2 Mexican Airlines Autos that are 2 weeks to harvest. The infestation on these 2 is just starting: small spider webs upon close examination. In terms of advanced pesticides I only have neem oil available, but dont even know if I should apply it on these 2 as they are 2 weeks to harvest.
What can I do? Should I cut them now? Could I lose the entire harvest? Should I let them go and the mites wont have enough time to ruin the harvest in 2 weeks?
What what what?!!!

The plants have darkened pistils 80% and 10% amber trichomes 80% milky, 10% clear.

Harvest miracle
H2o2
99%alcohol mixed with water
My good green earth..? The people who make bokashi make a product called 'ferminator'
Geranium oil (careful)
Spinosad
Diatomaceous earth
These would be the things I'd be looking at that late in flower
Give them a wash before you dry them

It is not like they are toxic, correct? What if I let my plants go? trichomes look mostly milky and 80% of hairs have darkened, but, according to breeder, 2 weeks more would be the idea.. What to do What do do? It is my only real sativa, my favorite!!!!

You can take a shop vac and suck most of those bastards off.. then treat with Plant Therapy Lost Coast Organic... safe stuff.. can use in flower if necessary... good luck

OK, so what I could do is put the plants inside garbage bags as they're small autos, then put my aquarium's co2 diffuser and turn it on. Then close the bags. Don't know which amount would be right, and don't know if this would be dangerous for me. What if I pass out doing so and die?

It'll be peaceful like you're tired and going to sleep.
Lmao. Idk man. Sounds like an ok idea. Personally I'd do it in the grow area to kill any nomads roaming around. Seal it, get a gauge then vent it out safely. Then do it again in 10 days. Or choose whatever works best for you in your situation. I just tried to give you some options you can look into. Good luck
