looks very much like spider mites. WHich would indicate lack of ventilation and dry air. Maybe dry roots too.

Do a whitepaper test. And if you have mites, treat with a pesticide that explicitly states spider mites.

Thrips can do this kind of damage too, mostly on non-conifers. A little neem oil treatment would prevent it from expanding.
