She is about 1.5 months into flowering give or take. She was attacked by Spider mites and fungus gnats which are now under control. Should I try to salvage now or let her continue to grow to see if she pulls through?

hanging them for a few days will get rid of the mites. they prefer live plant tissue and will usually leave. let your pots dry out a few days before harvest to help speed up the tissue "dying" if your in soil.

You have plenty of leaves left to keep flowering, but might be a few days slower finishing due to stress and less leaves. If she were mine I would let her finish. Good luck!

you can let it go some more but clean out all the dead leaves. and as stated above, your buds may be covered with webs from the mites depending on how bad the infestation was. if you didn't kill the eggs, then they will be back.

As long as you don't mind smoking spider mites keep it going, those fuckers get stuck in trichomes and I don't care what method you use their still going to be stuck to trichomes. IF you let it grow please don't offer it to anyone, my advise would be to make oil of her.

I ended up chopping today, may be a little early but I am eager to get a new plant in there and go Indica since I dont prefer Sativa and this one was Sativa. Most hairs were turning amber anyways so it wasnt too early. Nice little harvest for the size of the plant.
