You may want to sacrifice a bud and open one up to see if they are inside and eating their way out.

Youtube search jorge cervantes bud wash andbwatch his videos. Its super simple 3 buckets badically 2 plain water 1 5 gallons of water 1 bottle of 3% peroxide mixed. Put buds in the peroxide water for a few mins to let soak in some pull out drip for a minute rinse in both waters one first then the second for a better rinse. Hang with a fan blowing on the buds for a while til they r not dripping and dont feel sturated at the very bottom tips then hang dry as normal and cure.

Just like mark said. I just use two big storage containers, one with the water/peroxide mix, one with plain water. The ratio I used was 1 cup peroxide/ 5 gallons water, I have seen people use Stronger mixes, so don’t worry about getting the mix perfect.
