    Q
    Can SedgeHammer Herbicide be sprayed near pecan trees?
    A

    When applying SedgeHammer Herbicide near edible trees be sure to apply it outside of the drip line.  According to the manufacturer, this product remains in the soil for up to 3 years so the manufacturer recommends that you not plant anything edible in an area where SedgeHammer has been applied for at least 3 years.

    Sedgehammer should not harm roses if it is not applied directly to them.  Spot treating around the roses would be fine.

    Q
    Cam SedgeHammer be tank mixed with Grass Out Max and applied at the base of hardwood saplings?
    We don't want to harm the saplings.
    A

    Do not apply SedgeHammer Herbicide as an over the top spray to desirable flowers, ornamentals, vegetables, shrubs or trees.  Typically it is best to keep applications outside of the driplines of anything desirable so it would not be recommended to apply to the base of saplings.

    Q
    Is it still too early to use SedgeHammer+ on my sod?
    I installed a turf type fescue/bluegrass 7 weeks ago and it looks healthy except for nutsedge coming thru. What should I do? Please help. The longer I wait the more nutsedge pops up. Thank you
    A

    Per the product label, SedgeHammer+ Herbicide can be used on sod once it has been established. For your type of sod, that could take anywhere between 6 to 12 weeks.  We recommend test treating a small area first.

    Q
    Can I still eat the lemons if I sprayed SedgeHammer + Herbicide around the lemon tree?
    I wasn't thinking, and I sprayed Sedgehammer all around the base of my lemon tree. The tree is many years old, 10 ft tall, and mature. Is it safe to eat the lemons?
    A

    Since SedgeHammer + Herbicide is not safe to be applied on or near citrus trees, or any other edible plants, we would recommend contacting the mnaufacturer, Gowan at (800) 883-1844 to see how the product may have affected the tree.

    Q
    Can I use SedgeHammer to kill Bermuda weeds? And not burn my St. Augustine grass
    A

    SedgeHammer + Herbicide will not control bermuda but is safe to use on St Augustine and Bermuda for the weeds listed on the product label.   Bermuda grass is so closely related to St. Augustine grass that there is nothing that will remove Bermuda from St. Augustine and not hurt the St. Augustine as well.  In your situation it is recommended to spot treat the Bermuda with Round Up/other non selective herbicide and kill it directly, and then replant St. Augustine in those areas.   It can take multiple applications to eliminate it and best time is in the spring as it is starting to green up.

    Q
    Is SedgeHammer + Herbicide safe on sedum ground cover?
    My sedum ground cover is infested with yellow nutsedge/nutgrass
    A

    No, SedgeHammer + Herbicide is not labeled to be applied over your sedum ground cover.   Most of the time you have to spot treat where the sedge is coming up with a glyphosate based product like the Glyphosel Pro being careful to spray as little of the ground cover as possible.

    Q
    Is SedgeHammer Plus Herbicide safe for switchgrass to kill yellow nutsedge? Switchgrass is used for wildlife cover.
    A

    SedgeHammer Plus Herbicide is not labeled safe or tolerant on switchgrass. Unfortunately, the best option for treating nutsedge in switchgrass would be use a non selective herbicide such as glyphosate and spot treat the weeds directly. You can harvest the switchgrass high enough to leave actively growing weeds, then apply glyphosate at 1 to 2 quarts per acre..It is important to wait until the switchgrass is dormant so that it is not damaged by the glyphosate.

    Check with your Extension agent or other experts for information on which herbicides are labeled for use in the state and county where you will be using them.

    Q
    Does Sedgehammer kill horsetail? Mine is in my bark mulch, not my grass. Will Sedgehammer get through mulch?
    A

    SedgeHammer Plus Herbicide is labeled for horsetail, however it is only labeled to be applied on turf. Diquat Water Weed and Landscape Herbicide will kill horsetail. Horsetail is very hard to control and it can be tough to properly penetrate through the plant. When using the Diquat you will need to mix it at the rate of 2- 4 oz per gallon of water and mix it with an 80% Non ionic surfactant.

    Q
    Can I mix SedgeHammer Plus Herbicide with a hose end sprayer herbicide like Weed B Gone? If so how much should I add?
    A

    SedgeHammer Plus Herbicide or any other herbicide cannot be added to other hose end herbicide containers for tank mixing nor are hose end sprayers recommended to apply Sedgehammer Plus.
