Sorry you are having problems friend. It can be so frustrating losing a crop to spider mites. It looks like it's too late to save your plant now.
Spider mites love dry and hot gardens. You need to shut down for a while and scrub everything down after this grow. Wait long enough to starve the adults, about 12 days. Then when you restart use a preventive early on the plants. Spray the tops and bottom of every leaf with a cold-pressed neem oil mix with a drop of dish soap in warm water. Spray every few days to kill all the newly hatched eggs. You have to stay on them to keep them from reinfesting your gardens.

As creeper has said that plant is long gone. Scrap it and sterilize the grow space. Some people use neem oil and dish soap before they have a chance to do that much damage but, in my experience, it just ruins the quality of the finished product. Not to mention weed that crackles when you smoke it because of the dead mites and bug turds. Best to just start over fresh. I feel for you man. Ive lost some great plants to those little bastards
Its very important for me not to use store-bought neem oil because it is low-grade neem. I only used cold-pressed pure neem oil with a drop of dawn dish soap in warm water.

It wasnt that bad, I still have 3 more the mites didnt touch.
Its just Ive never had to deal with mites, we dont have mites in the south because the southern eco-system is many times better than californias. Mites cant establish themselves because atleast twice a week there are major rain storms washing them away. Not to mention the many insect predators.
