Welcome! and thank you for taking a look,
Well firstly, i want to start off by saying that this is my first grow ive ever attempted so i am still in the process of learning and experiencing new things. These plants were givin to me at 4 weeks old and one of them was 3 weeks. I've had them for 2 weeks now and been have taking quiet good care of them and doing everything i can do in my situation. There in good pots with soil i bought at home depot and i added percilite to the mixture.
Well my setup is basically based of home materials and minimumally under 50$ invested into equipment. So its not a super pro closet setup some of you might be thinking.
I know i definatly need better lights and im going to invest in them soon but till then i am using 100W bulbs (3), on four plants that i am growing. I am wondering how long this will last as far as there grow process because i know when they start flowering there is going to be a diffrent cycle needed.
There is a good consistancy of breeze though, bottom right there is a fan that is blowing air and giving them a good consistancy of air flow and there always moving nicely.
How long might this setup last? Whats needed.

* ~ The Plants ~ *
The plaint four plant strains im growing are - Chem Dog, Blue berry hogsbreath, bubba OG and Larry
Here's the big thing although, when i got these plants they had spider mites and i started treating them 2 days after i got them with this stuff called "Bayer Advanced Natria Insect, Disease and Mite Control" and I would spray them , leave them for 20 minutes, spray them down with water and then 20 minutes and there back in. I did this once every 3 days for 2 weeks now and it looks like they are going away, but definatly still there .. not as strong although.
They are looking okay to me and looking for a nice growth for the most part, there getting new leaves as im keeping track basically day by day.
THE BIG question really im trying to understand is that there getting like this almost to say 'sperm' looking substance on there leaves. Its like a crust like also because ive actually taken it off the leaves by peeling a little bit of the white stuff off. I dont know if the spider mites have caused this but i am thinking they have somthing to do with it or if you guys know what it really is, i really need the help.
Im really interested and am going to read all of your guys feedback so please dont be afraid to put good information in it.
I will be posting more pictures throughout time of these plants the full grow and any corrections that i might make through your guys judgement and advice.
Thank you,
UPDATES
Some updates that have been going throgh is definatly knowing to keep that light closer to them. Taken off covers due to dust and im in the process of changing up the spider mite spray and going to a local hydroponic store and getting real spider mite killer other than the homedepot shit i got.
Plants are going well and looking to start my flowering process in early to mid January.
