    Q
    Will Sedgehammer work to kill my nutsedge?
    I have sprayed nutsedge three times with Tenacity. The sedge is bright white and seems to grow but not as fast as before spraying 5 weeks ago. Sprouts keep popping up in an area I have been digging the root out, again they pop up white. I am going to try SedgeHammer after they pop up again, any advise?
    A

    Tenacity is labeled to control yellow nutsedge only, so it could be you are treating purple nutsedge, or kyllinga, which is in the same family and looks similar to sedges. If you have applied the Tenacity to the sedge with a surfactant and it has not died out completely and is only white after 5 weeks we would suggest to go ahead and try the Sedgehammer on any new growth. Sedge control products are supposed to be very slow killing so that it can try to move through the whole plant and roots as much as possible. Sedgehammer can take at least 3-5 weeks to kill down to the root and can be reapplied after 6 weeks if a second application is needed.

    Q
    Will Sedgehammer penetrate the soil beyond the sedge tubers and harm roots of nearby ornamental plants?

    SedgeHammer Herbicide does not leach in the soil so would not harm the ornamentals as long as you keep applications outside the dripline and avoid direct contact or drift to them.

    Q
    Does Sedgehammer kill native prairie grasses?
    The grasses I want to protect include bluestems, Indian grass and Panicum species. Does Sedgehammer kill or inhibit them? Does it affect flowering plants like Liatrus (Kansas Gayflower)? Thank you.
    A

    Sedgehammer is labeled to kill nutsedge without injury to listed established turfgrasses. You should not apply over-the-top of desirable ornamentals, shrubs, and/or trees.  We are not sure how the product would effect prairie so we recommend calling the manufacturer who is the expert on their own product.  The manufacturer is Gowan Company and they can be reached at (928) 783-8844.

    Q
    Wandering Jew and Sedge control in southern Floratam lawn?
    Can you recommend a product that will safely kill wandering jew in Floratam? I also have some sedge and have been told that Sedgehammer is safe in Floratam. Will it have any effect on the wandering jew?
    A

    Sedgehammer can be used in St Augustine grass per the product label but is not labeled for wandering jew and we do not have a product that is labeled for this weed.  It might be best to spot treat this weed with a glyphosate based product and reseed the areas.

    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.
