Looks like spider mites.

Buy a loupe ( I think I spelled it right) they're like $3 on eBay . also is that a clone, or has it been revegged?
It's a clone man but it wasn't like that when I got it because I checked for all signs because it was a clone and this is my first time having a plant in my room. Also I had a bad case of mildew in my room could it possible be a start of powdery mildew? And when I got it there was a change in light went from a cfl propegator light to a led with like 15,000 lumens after transplantation and had it pretty close on 24hr light then changed it to 18\6 and i think I also overwattered it trying to wash out nutes because i thought there was signs of nuts burn. And I kinda held the new shoots down with wire because one of the shoots wasn't getting any light and the white bumps have appeared after all the stress it's been through could that be a possibility ? I'm new to growing and just got a bit exited and tried to do everything I could to help it

The speckled leaves are caused by spider mites. They live on the undersides of leaves.
Turn out the lights then use a flashlight to look for webbing on stems.
Powdery mildew actually looks like powder, hence the name. I can post a pic if you want to see a sample.
Also there was a change in nutes the guy I got it off was using hydro feed after they rooted well under the CFL propagator light, the clone came from a plant that was hydroponic with canna aqua Vega and I transplanted in to canna coco Pro plus with a tiny amount of nutes then noticed the burn and ended up overwatering then that's when I noticed the white bumps, also got a chocolopez seedling on my window and I'm scared to put it anywhere near the cookies incase it is mites. One thing I've noticed though the under side of leaves doesn't look like there's any bugs or white dots

It's really hard to see them without magnification.
The speckled leaves give them away. If the leaf surface had actually been eaten, that would be from thrips.
You would also see their shit (little black dots).

I could be wrong, but I've had mites many times. Spider mites are white by the way. The worst ones are the dreaded two-spotted spider mite, which is a cannabis specialist and difficult to wipe out.
There are other mites that do not leave webbing. Russet mites are bad news.
Also, the leaves that have been damaged will never look healthy again, even after the mites are gone. But new growth should be fine.
Okay man I appreciate your help, I just found it strange cause I even bleached out my cupboard and washed it all before I took her in, and it kinda hard to tell because she's small about the height of my finger with two main branches with a third one popping out

Maybe the guy you got it from already took care of them???
Dunno.
I can always be wrong. I've had mites more times than I want to admit. Hell, my outdoor plants have them now! Lucky for me, mites don't like cold nights. Plus I've got good bugs that help keep em under control.
So what do you think would be the best option for mites? Don't really like the thought of lady bugs in my room haha but if I really need to I'll give it a shot. I've also been told it can just happen to plants it's like acne or something but it sounded kinda stupid to me and I'm to paranoid to believe that 100% so I think I just gunna go with mites just incase would be worse If I left it till flower then found out it was act mites

Your not in bad shape with a plant that small. Look into a mite solution you can submerge the whole plant. Reclean grow area, follow up with a mite solution spray. Be vigilant and get them gone if you do got them.
Otherwise my last revegging babies had bumbs all over, not sure if you can tell in this pic. No mites at all and they turned pretty healthy after a bit.
I know those look like hell. But remember. It is a very vigilant plant and can take alot! Here are them babies today in the front. Just flipped to flower.

Nice man, what do you mean by revegging not really sure what you mean? I thought it could partly be the amount of stress she's been under and light change, she was 24hr light when I got her I put her on 18\6 then put back on 24 because she was dropping a bit then put it back to 18\6 when she picked up a bit, and I've never seen a plant that small with 3 shoots

Almost looks like trichs at first lol. I've had mites a few times. But I ask you others commenting. Did you have SO many white dots/bumbs? It is hard to believe mites can do that much in a plant so young? I could be wrong your almost covered?
Reveg or Monstercropped is taking a clone from a flowering plant

In my honest opinion I would just keep an eye under the leaves for mites and just let her grow some and see how the new growth appears
Na she was took from a veging plant , and there is quite alot but she's not completely covered other than that shes growing healthy I overwatering her a bit there were some signs of that and under the leaves look completely normal, I'll let her grow out a bit and if I'm still concerned I'll post some more pics thanks for your reply

Oh course, good luck! I looking forward to seeing her as a flowering beast 
Andalso it only looks that bad when fully zoomed in with a bright light on it, just looking at it under day light I can barely see a thing they just look like normal healthy plants
