Algal crust stealing the spotlight on your greens, tees, or fairways?
ZymeCO • July 27, 2026

That dark, slick layer is more than just an eyesore. Algae crust can seal off the surface, reduce water movement, limit gas exchange, and create conditions that make turf recovery even harder.


AlgaeZyme is designed to help break down algae crust and support cleaner, more open surfaces so water, air, and nutrients can move where they need to go.


Surface apply 0.4 to 0.8 ounces per 1,000 sq. ft. in ½ to 2 gallons of water biweekly or monthly. as part of your regular turf program, especially in areas prone to moisture, shade, poor drainage, or repeated algae pressure. 


Cleaner surface. Better movement. Healthier turf environment. Learn more here: https://www.zymecompany.com/algaezyme

Corn residue can decompose slowly because lignin gives stalks and leaves their rigid structure. TillZyme™ uses laccase enzyme technology to help accelerate the breakdown of tough crop residue.
By Stephanie Wedryk, Ph.D. September 2, 2026
After harvest, crop residue is not just leftover stalks and leaves. It is an active biological system that adds nutrients to the soil, increases organic matter, and builds better soil structure for next year. Actively managed residues help create a favorable seedbed for better stands and yield. The enzymes produced by fungi accelerate the process by breaking down tough lignin before naturally occurring soil microbes take over. Learn more here .
