How much H2O2?

Got this off another site with someone explaining the how to on the ratio. May not be the simplest answer.
“A five minute pre-bath in a dilute (0.05 percent) hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) solution will disinfect and wash away pest feces, bacteria, dust, etc. Remove branches from the H2O2 bath and gently rinse with a spray of water. The spray bath will not affect resin production. Gently jiggle buds after rinsing to shake off any standing water. To prevent fungus and bud blight, remove large leaves and wash the garden early in the day to allow excess water to dry before nightfall. If bud mold (botrytis) is visible, carefully remove infected bud an inch below damage. Remove contaminated growth from garden and destroy. Wash hands. Insert “amputated” branches in H2O2 bath.”

5% h202 I’m guessing
 
Buds infested with aphids need to go in the trash. Aphids leave too much crap that you'll likely not be able to wash away if they're in the buds. Aphids are pretty easy to deal with when they're on the leaves. But if they've infested the buds those buds would be tossed if it was me.

Good luck

Thank you for your opinion, I washed them, they look fine and will try them in some time, I think it shouldn't be such a problem for me. We'll see
