  • Asked by Clint from Rosedale, Ny
    08/14/2017
    Q
    Do I have to pull up weeds after applying Sedgehammer?
    A

    No, you do not have to pull the weeds after applying SedgeHammer Herbicide, however, continually removing shoots eventually depletes the energy source reserves in the tubers.  Tubers are key to nutsedge survival. If you can limit production of tubers, you’ll eventually control the nutsedge itself.

  • Asked by Al from Jackson, Ms
    09/05/2017
    Q
    Does SedgeHammer Herbicide have post-emergent activity on poa annua?
    Also would a methylated seed oil improve uptake vs a non ionic spreader/sticker?
    A

    The SedgeHammer Herbicide packet contains a surfactant already( the 1.33 oz bottle size should be used with a Non-Ionic Surfactant) so just adding water would be approved. It is not labeled for treating poa annua, only Purple Nutsedge, Yellow Nutsedge and Kyllinga, plus some other listed broadleaf weeds. Please let us know the desired turfgrass species and size area for a recommendation on treating poa annua.

    Q
    Can Sedgehammer damage nearby trees?

  • Asked by Josh from Woodbury, Mn
    09/17/2017
    Q
    How late in the season can Sedgehammer be applied?
    I have a nutsedge problem in my yard in Minnesota and just overseeded at the beginning of September. Is October too late to apply Sedgehammer to a yard?
    A

    Sedgehammer will only control weeds that are actively growing, so it likely will not kill anyting in the winter once the plants are dormant, and it may only give partial control in the fall. It is best used in the warmer spring and summer months and early fall.

  • Asked by Gerald from St Michael, Barbados
    11/21/2017
    Q
    How and when can I plant Bermuda grass after I have applied SedgeHammer Herbicide and the nutsedge has turned yellow-brown?
    Apart from the nutsedge, there are other weeds that I can dig out. Should I attempt to dig out the nutsedge nuts as well?
    A

    Areas treated with SedgeHammer Herbicide may be overseeded with annual or perennial ryegrass or bermudagrass 2 weeks after application.  Seed should be applied as directed on the seed packaging.  Sedgehammer often works with one application, but depending on the size and age of the nutsedge a second treatment may be required 6 to 10 weeks after the initial treatment.  You do not want to dig up the treated sedge as it will take time to completely kill and you may need to do another application.

  • Asked by Debbie from Baton Rouge, La
    04/24/2018
    Q
    I've had a fig tree for over 20 years. Last year it produced 65 lbs of figs that we picked. It now appears to be dead. Could the SedgeHammer have killed it?
    A

    SedgeHammer Herbicide would not have harmed the fig tree if used as directed.  While it is not labeled to be applied around edibles and applications should be kept outside of the dripline of edible trees, unless you sprayed the tree directly it should not have been affected.  There are many possible factors which could be affecting the tree.  We would recommend that you contact your local cooperative extension office for advice on what may be causing this appearance and how to best treat it.
