you need to get rid of those lil' fuckers NOW! Go to your local garden supply, get some neem oil. Spread the neem oil all around the edge of the pot, this will keep any more from climbing in, and will take care of any that come into contact with it. If you have yor plant tied up in any way, coat the rope or whatever too. Spidermites will cocoon your colas and kill them if you don't deal with them fast, if they have already started weaving, you'd be better off chopping her down and cutting your losses if you have other plants. Otherwise you can always take drastic measures and spray your plant with a 30% alchohol solution to kill the mites, but this will also cause damage to your plant, but if you follow up with a nice cleansing rinse, damage shouldn't be too horrendous.

Hope any of that helps, spidermites are assholes, and should be destroyed at all cost!

Peas out :D
