  • Asked by Bobby from Murphysboro, Il
    07/23/2018
    Q
    If you spray SedgeHammer in the fall, will it keep nutgrass from coming back the next year?
    A

    SedgeHammer is a post-emergent herbicide, so it will work on actively growing nutgrass, but will not prevent future growth.  Pennant Magnum and Echelon 4SC would be pre-emergent options for nutgrass.

  • Asked by Kim from Hot Springs Village, Ar
    07/09/2018
    Q
    Can I use SedgeHammer Herbicide in my flowerbed?
    Can I use it near my hydrangeas too?
    A

    SedgeHammer Herbicide is labled to control only the broadleaf weeds listed on the label.  However, since flowers are considered a broadleaf plant species as well, you would want to not spray over the top of the desireable plants. Try to limit sprays to only the weeds you wish to eliminate and be cautious of any drift of the product to nearby flowers.

    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.

    07/19/2013
    Q
    Can I use SedgeHammer in paths around vegetable garden?
    I'm interested in why it is recommended to not use SedgeHammer in Veggie gardens. Might it kill adjacent plants (I'd be carefully deploying it in a path at least a foot from the drip line from some tomatoes)? Would it make nearby veggies unhealthy?

    Certain products are not labeled for use around edibles as it could cause harm to the plant either through absorbing it into the food you are going to eat, or by killing the plant. Unless it has an agricultural label you can not use it around edibles or near the drip line.
