Green Star Products’ Cannabis Insect Repellent Spray Passes California Testing
Kristy Hunt, President of Green Star Products (OTCMKTS:GSPI), announced on November 11, 2021 that their Cannabis Insect Repellent Spray has met the standards of rigorous California testing that was performed by CannaSafe Labs for 70 different categories including pesticides and other substances that are prohibited in California.
The product in question has passed with flying colors in categories like pesticides, heavy metals, microbials, mycotoxins, residual solvents, while recording non-detectable quantities in all 70 categories. The CannaSafe personnel are highly impressed and has contacted the company directly to state that the Cannabis Insect Repellent Spray is possibly one of the cleanest samples they have ever tested.
Now that they have the approval, test products can be distributed to California growers. The repellent has already been tested by Montana growers against two of the most prevalent and destructive insects for cannabis plants β spider mites and thrips. As of now, testing is being conducted against other insects, and for other agriculturally important plants. The Cannabis Insect Repellent Spray has shown promising results against flies too.
The repellant was developed by Joseph LaStella, who retired as President of Green Star Products, to conduct his own private research. Green Star Products has acquired the exclusive distribution rights for North and South America. Limited production is expected by end of December 2021, with a full scale-up by late January 2022.
