thank you everyone for the great advice! I will be much more prepared for a showdown on the next run.
The habenaro spray outlined by 1diesel1 has eradicated the mites in two sprays! Cheap and effective!
although a bit Of work and sore on the throat but works very well!

Would you report back after harvest and let us know if you noticed any residual affects of the habanero spray?

It would be helpful to see follow up posts from folks who have problems. In fact, it would be great if there was a searchable tag that users could put on threads to give feedback about techniques that have been suggested by others, and implemented with either good or bad results.

Look at any given thread asking for help with a problem and you're going to see conflicting advice, or at least several different solutions suggested. It would be great if we could make it easy to search threads where the advice an OP was seeking actually worked for the OP.

I have used green cleaner a couple of times in late flower. You just have to be really careful not to spray until the lights are off. If you spray when lights are on, or even close to when they come on - you WILL burn and destroy your plants. I did destroyed a couple of plants that way. Learn from my mistakes!

I have also tried Dr. Zymes eliminator, but did not have much success controlling the infestation of mites, although I did not try at full strength tbh.

Neither product was detrimental to my trichomes or bud structure; and after dry/cure the buds looked/tasted/smoked like normal buds.

I also wash my buds after harvest as well. Very easy to do, and no negative impacts.

Soap n water works for me. I've had this issue a couple of times, late in flower. And baby sit those girls. But I will definitely wash after chopping it down. Trim will have to be a little more detailed also.

Chop them down start over. Or you’re gonna be smoking the little bastards.Unless you like to hear snap crackle and pop when you light up. It’s that simple. Use GreenClean or Purecrop1 every week on the next grow as a preventative.
Also dip your cuttings in GreenClean when you bring them home. Cheers!
