A number of methods could be used to create an environment where the fugal infections are outcompetted. Innoculating with micorhyzae and foliar applications of compost tea, switching to plant based fertilizers and topdressing soil with your vermicompost would likely move you in the direction of controlling pathogens without chemicals.
