Any remedies or suggestions how to get rid of these guys? Found white specks on my leaves and lower canopy leaves turning yellow.

Please don't spray neem in flower. It's not good to ingest nor is it good for your pistils.

Little white spots on the leaves can be from a variety of things but generally when I hear white dots on leaves I think spider mites.

That's generally a nitrogen deficiency.

They probably told you to stop using it because you had over done it.

But your plants will always need a certain level of nitrogen even thru flower.

Have you seen the schedule for fox farms nutrients?

We haven't ruled out anything tbh. But root aphids aren't the likely culprit.

Spinosad not dionide.. lol. It's that or citric acid. These are the only things I would use in flower. Both are organic and won't affect the buds. I prefer Spinosad for extreme pest infestation in flower. Citric acid will burn the leaf tips. Tiny white bugs that hang out in leaf veins are thrips not aphids btw.

Tbh the plant looks fine other than the clawing and the yellow leaves prob fell off because of not enough light getting down there. The plant is lanky indicating low light levels
I think youre just reading stuff on the internet and putting 2+2 together and thinkin you have something you dont have. But without looking inside the pot you wont know for 100%
