You might have hit the bulls-eye.

The pictures were not close up enough and with enough detail to say for sure but I did think it possible that spider mites, or possibly some other insect, might be the cause.

Even not close up enough the spots just do not look like powdery mildew to me. For the growers sake I hope it is that rather than The Borg or some other critter ... but that was what I thought might possibly be the cause of the white spots.

I would suggest that a very close inspection be done and if Borg found steps be taken quickly or the plants will be lost to The Borg.
