You could use neem oil if you want organic but i think they have something like mite fogger or something like that.

my first attempt at growing was in a garage and that was my first and worst "run in" with mites, really bad... i mean webs! and i ended up vacuuming and it actually worked out great, so if its that bad i suggest trying that, and then Organocide+ manual leaf massage (top and bottom of leaves) P.S. this also works for powder mildew.

Pyrethrum fogger.

Google it.

It has a half life of 5 mins, organic, kills on contact, no residue after a few hours, cheap.

Floramite is good, it should be for the money. I use Safe Garden's Fungicide 3. It is safe to use day before harvest, kills fungicides, molds and mites. an 8 oz concentrated bottle at Walmart is $13.

You'll have to do it in stages.... first kill is the adults, then spray 5 days later for newly hatched eggs then 5 days later for stragglers.

Good luck!

If you're using neem at high concentrations make sure you rinse it off within 24hrs or you will see some serious, serious leaf burn. i lost a majority of my fans and a few weaker plants because of this. my girls are still recovering.
 
I had a similar problem with the little buggers and read on http://www.killspidermite.co.uk/ that spider mites breed so fast they can grow resistant to one pesticide so it's a good idea to chop and change between different varieties. Has anyone had any experiences that would back up this claim?
Cheers!
