    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.

  • Asked by Gerald from St Michael, Barbados

    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.

    Q
    Will SedgeHammer harm my vinyl above ground pool?
    I didn't know it's pre-emergent only when I ordered. I need to periodically treat perimeter of my above ground pool to help stop nut grass spread under the vinyl. Any suggestions?
    A

    SedgeHammer is a post-emergent herbicide to control nutsedge and listed broadleaf weeds. You will need to spray existing exposed plants for the active ingredient to be absorbed systemically down through the roots and nutlets of the plant. If used correctly on the lawn areas, then this product would not harm an above-ground pool in the area.

    Q
    Can sedgeHammer be used to control dollar weed growing through a liriope bed?
    A

    SedgeHammer Herbicide is not labeled for dollarweed and is mainly used to control grassy weeds. To control broadleaf weeds in landscape beds or around ornamentals, we would recommend using Snapshot 2.5 TG in early spring before the weeds germinate and spot treating the dollarweed when it is actively growing with a non selective herbicide like Roundup
