Need help 3 quick questions

[heaze2010]

I have 3 quick questions, this issue is involving 1 plant out of 5. Which sucks cause it’s the nicest 1 out of 5, go figure. 1. Are these orange and black bugs/larvae aphids? Or something else?
2. Is this powdery mildew I noticed a small spot 3 weeks ago and it has spread but not much, either way it’s more significantly noticeable now.
3. I haven’t checked trichome in about a week but on this plant the pistols are starting to recede. All the other plants still have vigorous new pistol growth. Think this might be a week or 2 away?
Not so much a question more of a observation. The night time temperatures have been in the mid 40’s to low 50’s the last week could this have inhibited any of these 3 occurrences?

I never seen those bugs before but mildew has more to do with moisture then temperature. It spreads faster when the combined temperature and humidity added together are above 140.

Ya I ended up spraying with a baking soda peroxide and dish soap mix, I’ll have to check the humidity, it hasn’t rained in over a week and even before then it was scarce the last month.

With cooler temperatures I noticed dew gives everything a good drench overnight.

Looks like aphids. I had some earlier in the year and used an organic bug killer derived from chrysanthemum. I had 1000s on the plant and they were gone instantly and plant is now healthy. Only thing is I wouldn’t want to spray it on the flower unless I really had to. Mine was in veg so there was no flower.
