SedgeHammer Herbicide can be applied to well established zoysiagrass after the turf has developed a good root system and uniform throughout. This is typically after 30 days or the 2nd or 3rd mowing. Apply when ait temperatures are between 65-85 degrees to prevent injury to desirable turfgrass.
During the summer months, it is recommended to spray in early morning or late afternoon/early evening during the coolest time of the day.

You will need to wait 2 weeks following an application of SedgeHammer Herbicide to overseed with annual or perennial ryegrass or bermudagrass.
If applying Sedgehammer after overseeding or reseeding new turfgrass, allow the turf to develop a good root system and stand before making an application. We recommend watiting until after the 2nd mowing before applying Sedgehammer for post emergent weed control.

No, SedgeHammer Herbicide is not labeled for skunkvine therefore would not be recommended.
Skunkvine is a dificult vine to treat and there are not really any selective herbicides specifcally labeld for it. Eliminating skunkvine will require multiple applications using a non selective herbicide like Roundup QuickPRO while the vines are connected to the root system in the ground.
Alternative herbicide active ingredients known for eliminating skunkvine after multiple treatments would be products using triclopyr and/or imazapyr. These herbicides will remain in the soil for long periods of time therefore should not be used where future seeding or planting will take place.
Please contact your County Cooperative Extension Office for their recommendations for treating Skunkvine in your county.
