I personally wouldn't water cure.

I had a mite infestation once at the end of harvest. I ended up just rinsing off the buds in the sink before hanging them to dry. It worked like a charm, all the bugs were washed away and the bud dried and cured like normal.

I think they'll leave on their own once the plant dies/dries. Don't know if they leave behind honeydew like whiteflies, but if they do, washing or just bubble hashing the infected parts might be in order. At hd/lowes, they sell an organic insecticide made with different essential oils. Might add some flavor, but will definitely knock down the aphids in a few days. Perfectly safe to eat or smoke.
