I have 2 plants. Both grown in soil. Under 400w HPS. I'm about 6 weeks into 12/12. I just discovered a bunch of asshole spider mites crawling under the fan leaves. I have neem oil but I read it's not good to use during flower? Like the smoke will be nasty and harsh? FML. SERIOUSLY. Is this as horrible as I'm thinking? Can I save them?

WHAT SHOULD I DO? Seriously, I can't believe this had to happen so close to the finish line. Is there any way I can get rid of them without damaging my girls too much? PLEASE, please help. I can give more info or pictures if necessary.

could use fatty acids....soap spray........................ive used neem oil late in flower........5ml per litre and a drop of washing up liquid to emulsify....shake well and use a fine spray on leaves , stems, earth and pots........just dont directly spray on buds and do at lights off..

I wiped down all the leaves with a neem oil/dishwashing liquid mix. Praying it doesn't get any worse... I wasn't planning on harvesting for another 4 weeks at least, but now I don't know. Maybe I should take them down early.

a hot shot bug bomb in the BLUE can will help a lot an also will not affect the taste. the neem will help a lil bit an if you got 4 full weeks left , the neem will dissipate by then.
Neem is just not strong enough for your prob this late into flower, you would need 2 or 3 sprayings just to phase their breeding cycle an you dont have time for all that.
regular roach bombs from walmart or anywhere else in US. BLUE can only. let the whole bomb off in your room an leave it sealed for at least 4 hours then do it again in 3 days an that should help you till the end of the cycle.
