Spider Mites Buds Ready! HELP PLEASE

[90winkt]

I got to the finishing phase and now I find out I have spider Mites!! Found them with new 60x mag. I bought. Buds are ready on one, and a week away on other.
We have dried samplings and smoked not knowing these were on it!! Do I need to toss out what we dried, boyfriend says FUKKKK ITTTT.. SMOKE EM.... I AM NOT AS CONVINCED AS IT GROSS'S ME OUT!!! Do they make you sick?

Hosed em down with cold water this morning, took all injured leaves off and tossed out. Trichs are cloudy some amber on one, crystal/coudy on other. Pretty buds, don't see many webs but what I thought was dirt on backs of leaves MOVES!!!!!

Please any help on Spider Mites this late in their stage would be helpful. What a waste, but yet still so pretty and BAM....even the younger ones make ya sit down wonder why you can't reach remote.

THANK YOU>>>>>THANK YOU>>>>

Just hang and dry them! First off, the mites won't make you sick to smoke them. Secondly, from what I read, as the plant dries, they will head upward toward what (they think) is the juicier top of the plant. In reality, they are heading toward the coat hanger or whatever you are hanging the plant from. When your plants get dry, the mites should be gone, looking for something to munch on on the hanger (wash or toss the hanger).

Thank you so much! My biggest fear came true, I have looked for them before but was told I was nuts. With bigger Magnifier it opened up a whole new world, went from a 30x to a 60x-100x. Best investment ever but till you see the spider mites in person...EEEEWWWWW freaking scary little critters. Plus had a hard time clearly seeing trichs, but now its amazing how much more you see.

Thanks again, I would put a pic of leaves with Spider Mites and my first finished girls but not sure how.
