This HF 23 strain is rated only for houseflies and should not be sold as a soil amendment as it does not take care of any significant cannabis pests.
Thanks for the Review!! There was a publishing error on our label from our manufacturer and HF23 was the original used years ago to start the innoculations on plants that then generated the newer plant isolated versions of Beauveria. The Product we offer is NOT HF23 and is a blend of Isolated BB from bean plants and that's why it works so well. I promise this is an effective product for the plants and soil and not for the house fly.

I wasn't necessarily in the market for a "soil symbiot" when I purchased a beauveria bassiana product, I was looking for something to help control root aphids. BaS later informed me via email that they make no claims regarding this product's effectiveness as a biological insecticide, and that's cool, but had I known that I wouldn't have purchased it. The customer reviews here paint a very different picture. As for me, 7 weeks and multiple applications later I'm seeing zero results. Perhaps the beauveria spores are indeed engaged in some manner of symbiosis with something within the soil web, I genuinely can't tell, but they aren't infecting any soft-bodied insects with muscardine, at least not in my garden.
Totally understand. The product we offer is more potent than others labeled for pesticide but we don't make any claims because we don't sell it for that purpose. But, either way, all I'm getting at is that it's not a problem because the product is different. Would love to help if you have further questions.
