what are these bugs? some sort of aphid?

These were found in the last week of flower, up near the top buds only and on the underside of the sugar leaves. Very slow-moving and not much damage... yet. Anyone know what they are? Google image-searched; came up with nothing.

I dunno about you guys but last pic top leaf I see a RA or fungus gnat

Def looks like aphids. But I'm no bug expert. Lol. Good luck.

Yes, they are aphids, no doubt about it.

You can see both sexual morphs there: asexual and sexual.

The asexual morphs are those with no wings. The sexual morphs are the ones with wings..they're able to reproduce sexually.

Generally speaking you find there where the active growth of the plant it (the growth tips) as that's where the highest concentration of sugars and nitrogen is.

Got ants? @Gandalfalfa is correct, on both counts, and gave you a good hint at helping to control them, too. ;)
