Do you water with tap? It could be minerals leaving through the leaves. Does it wipe off or no?

I water with tap but stopped misting with tap water as I thought that was the problem . I mist with mineral water now . It does not wipe off.

As an aside, I would definitely stop misting altogether you open yourself up to a lot of problems. If you’re watering with tap then I think it’s the minerals from the water coming through the leaves. This doesn’t look like spider mites to me, but worth it to check extra well

Have you checked, double checked, then triple checked for spider mites?
