Either Sedgehammer or Monument could be used as they are both labeled for nutsedge and would be effective. Sedgehammer already comes with a surfactant in the 13.5 pack, whereas you would need a separate one with Monument.
Sedgehammer should not be applied to dry or damp soil. It is most effective if there is no rainfall or irrigation within 4 hours of application.
SedgeHammer Herbicide can be applied with a hose end sprayer. Please be aware the application through a hose-end sprayer may not be as accurate as using a hand pump sprayer.
Sedgehammer Herbicide is not labeled to be used in pastures. The only product we currently carry for yellow nutsedge that is labeled for us in pastures is AXXE Broad Spectrum Herbicide. Please refer to the product label for complete instructions.
SedgeHammer Herbicide can be applied to turfgrass, but not to ornamentals, shrubs, and/or trees. It should not be applied as an over-the-top spray to desirable flowers, ornamentals, vegetables, shrubs, or trees. Per the product label: This product may be applied at specified rates as a post-directed spray around established woody ornamental species in landscaped areas. For transplanted woody ornamentals, allow three months after transplanting before applying this product.
We always recommend doing a sample tank mix first when mixing with other products to make sure that everything mixes well.
SedgeHammer Herbicide has a shelf life of about 3 years if kept out of extreme temperatures and direct sunlight. Nothing below freezing or above 90. Typically it is best kept in a cool dry place inside.
SedgeHammer Herbicide comes in a 13.5 gram packet that has a built in surfactant and only requires you to add to one gallon of water in your sprayer. The 1.33 oz bottle does not include a surfactant so we would suggest using the Non-Ionic Surfactant For Herbicides rather than dish soap.
Yes, you can apply sedge hammer herbicide to your bermuda lawn before the temperature reaches 85 degrees. Apply with enough time to make sure it’s dry before the temperature reaches that point or apply in the evening after temps have cooled off.
It is recommended that you only use 1 packet of Sedgehammer Herbicide in a gallon of water per 1000 square feet. If you are treating more area, you can use more product. This product can be reapplied every 30 days as needed.
If you are not seeing the results expected, another good option is Dismiss Herbicide. This product is safe for use in bermudagrass and will eliminate nutsedge.
Temperatures can have an effect on the SedgeHammer Herbicide. As long as the nutsedge is still actively growing it can be applied. Colder temperatures can prohibit growth of weeds, but you should still get usage out of the product with those temperatures.
Yes, Sedgehammer Herbicide is labeled to kill various types of nutsedge, including green nutsedge.
Sedgehammer should not be used in and/or around any desirable vegetation. The only item that can be used inside of a food plot would be glyphosate products.
