There's not much you can do that far into flower. On the other hand, they probably won't kill your plants. You said the plants look great so. . .just persevere. I have used a shop vaccuum on my buds to remove webbing.

The good news is, they will leave your plant when you harvest and dry it, most of em anyway.

no, mites seem to freak out and go nuts when you start flowering phase. Also, every day your population of mites is increasing exponentially. The farther you get into flower, the crazier they will get.

neem oil. mix it with dishsoap and spray both sides of the leaves and nugs. spray the soil or whatever medium your using. repeat every 3-4 days till there gone. neem is used in the food industry so it is safe for consumption.

I agree, but don't forget to wash it off, OK? Spray it on and once you're done, don't let it sit on there longer than an hour. Less time is even better. Yes, it is a wonderful bug killer that I use constantly. But it clogs stomata, and that's how your plants breathe, and if you don't wash it off, they will suffocate, or at least turn out all weird and fucked up. Spray, let it dry, wash it off with plain water, repeat.
