So yesterday i went to defoliate my bruce banner which just finished the final stretch and flowers are just now appearing and noticed spider mites on bottom of leaves. I had nothing but neem oil on hand. Reluctantly i dowssed the whole plant figuring since it still has the whole flowering process to get rid of the neem oil. Any thoughts on this would be greatly considered and appreciated.

You made the decision, nobody made you.
No need to discuss it.

Plant seems to be fine now. I checked about a dozen under leaves and no bugs and plant looks healthier and darker.

I’ve had mites in week 6-7 before. Drenched them down with plant therapy. Worked fine, I didn’t see any residual effect. I’m not loosing over 100 plants cuz I don’t wanna spray in flower. Sometimes it’s just what u gotta do.

I know dudes that sprayed them with eagle20 that late in flower. That’s something I never do, stoped using it completely even before flowering. But it does work.
