Fungicide - Helps to eradicate disease. Fungus not removed from gardens can significantly hurt the health and longevity of your lawn. Fungicide is used in conjunction with fertilizer. It helps reduce brown patch dollar spots and rust.

A Fungicide is one of three main methods of pest control- chemical control of fungi in this case. Fungicides are chemical compounds used to prevent the spread of fungi in gardens and crops, which can cause serious damage to the plants. Fungicides are also used to fight fungal infections.

Fungicides can either be contact or systemic. A contact fungicide kills fungi when sprayed on its surface. A systemic fungicide has to be absorbed by the fungi before the fungi dies. One example is the QoI.

Chemical fungicides however can also cause problems:

1. They can be persistent in the environment and in living organisms; and so do not break down.
2. They bioaccumulate and become increasingly toxic for other creatures in the environment. They can build up to lethal concentrations.

Tree and Shrub Deep Root Feeding - Trees growing in their natural habitat should have access to all of the minerals they need to survive and grow. Anything you can do to mimic that habitat can reduce the need for fertilizer. This may include letting leaves remain on the ground in the fall instead of raking them up. Chances are, though, that despite your best efforts, the need for fertilizer will not be entirely eliminated.
