In this video, I break down the research on biological and oil-based fungicides for dollar spot control in turfgrass. We examine whether products like biological fungicides, mineral oils, and plant-based treatments actually work compared to traditional chemistry.
The results show that most biological products failed to provide consistent, season-long dollar spot control, while some oil-based products offered limited suppression under lower disease pressure.
If you're interested in dollar spot management, fungicide alternatives, and evidence-based turfgrass science, this video is for you.
