Kingfish is right.
You can add a couple yellow sticky traps to the room, and probably catch a few of the little stinkers, especially if you give the plants a good shake, but should be fine since close to harvest. I would say about 2-3 weeks from the little bit of growing auto's I have done, possibly closer to two.Be sure to take a look at Nebulas harvest tutorial if you haven't already.
It looks like your getting a little heat stress to, with the serrations on some of those leaves curling up like that.
I think you will still harvest some nice bud though, and glad you didn't end up with spider mites!

I had me a pretty good Thripp infestation on my current grow, early on, and the thing that seemed to mostly do it for me, was a couple treatments of Diatomacious Earth. Put on dust mask and sprinkle it in front of a fan set on high, with the fan aimed at the undersides of the leaves. Don't want to do that during flower though, since you get your buds full of the stuff!
I miss diagnosed to, thought they were leaf miners, till I saw another post on GWE. There I was, squishing the effected leaves between my fingers, trying to kill leaf miner larvae, even left my finger prints in one of the fan leaves, noticed it a couple weeks later, after it had grown out a bit, Lol!

What do you have for air exchange in the tent?

Nothing putting air into the tent! Have a carbon filter and a intake fan in the tent sucking the smell out GreenhouseEffect

Well, adding an inline fan bringing air in, might help some, though I feel like PULLING air out, is more effective. Adding a fresh air fan, or a bigger exhaust fan, would both help. Also, where the exhaust and fresh air are being pulled from, can help. You want to basically be pulling the exhaust air across your bulbs on the way out, to help cool them, kind of like the hoods on Hps/ Mh lights.
If you can somehow bring in air from a place that is a little cooler, that can help to.
Definitely not saying you have to run out and spend a bunch of money on keeping your tent cooler right away, but it will certainly help in the future. The more you can keep your plants in homeostasis, the better everything will go. If the plants aren't to hot, then the better they resist pests, or under watering. If they are not having to fight off pests and disease, the better they will be able to cope with the tent getting a little to hot, or the nutes getting a little off, Etc.
All things in balance, so no system gets overly stressed, and breaks, or fails.
