I cannot get the pics to enlarge. It looks like a brown vein in picture #3 is russet mites and the healthy one below that looks fine.
If you have peppermint essential oil then add about 9 to 10 drops per gallon of water and add 3 drops of Dawn dish soap. If you can get Ivory white dish soap ($2.87 at Wal Mart for a big bottle) or Fels Naptha Soap then add it to a one gallon sprayer and shake. Use those instead of Dawn.
You can get a 16 oz bottle of Canola oil at Wal Mart for $1.00. Add a half a teaspoon or a little less to the mix.
Spray under all the leaves then turn the lights off. Let sit for 45 mins to 60 minutes then turn fans on.
I cannot understand people who try to grow MMJ. You tell them to turn the lights off to avoid the lights burning the leaves and you get excuses. They think they might have mites and they drag their feet spraying for mites. What is the old saying about people being stupid and they shoot first and ask questions later?
When dealing with mites - shoot first and ask questions later.
The mites don't give a shit - they are destroying the plants while supposed growers drag their feet in doing something. Spraying will not hurt the plants. All growers should have a $9 bottle of Neem oil, if not, then do something else.
If you do not have $9 then make some Fels Naptha Soap on the detergent aisle in every store for a $1 plus $1 for a chees grater at Dollar Tree and a jar. See below. You have to grate it, add water and heat the water up. If you leave it in the sun it will probably get hot enough. This is the soap great grandma used to get stains out and wash clothes. It will not harm your plants but it will seriously f**k up mites.

I trained some guy on a growing system. The system was taught to me that cost me some serious money.
It is consistent and as the dude who taught me said - "I could teach a retard this." I showed this younger guy what to do - I told him he needs to drip 5 to 6 times a night because it is a coco mix. I told him over and over and over. His yield is not what it should be and my guess is he under watered.
Powdery Mildew? Tea Tree Oil, Clove Oil and Rosemary Oil.
Rosemary will also kill mites. Clove may help kill mites. tea Tree not sure - I would add rosemary, peppermint or lavender with the Tea Tree.
Sorry if I sound like a prick but I have seen too many videos on you tube with spider mite webs and lazy people with dirty grows. One guy holds himself out to be a talented grower. He takes a hedge trimmer and electric chain saw and cuts down a whole room of plants because he or his friends were just lazy.
Spider mites or Russets will jump all over your shit in a few hours if you are not paying attention. They are relentless little pricks. I have spent countless hours on the web, youtube, asking people, going to stores, reading probably every mites spray bottle you can think of to battle these little shits.
