    Q
    Using SedgeHammer on feed plots
    I have several feed plots we use for deer and turkey. Yellow nutsedge has taken over all. I'm planning on spraying several acres using the 1.33 oz. bottle with 40 gallons of water. How many acres will this cover and will it hurt deer to graze the rye, oats and wheat we plant in the fall? Thanks, Jim
    A

    Q
    How soon can I plant annuals and perennials after spraying SedgeHammer and has eliminated yellow sedge?
    A

    Per the manufacturer, you may need to wait a few months in order to plant as you may need to do multiple treatments of SedgeHammer Herbicide. If you do make multiple treatments, you can plant new perennials and annuals at least 4-6 weeks after your last application.

    Q
    Can Sedgehammer be used on gardens, if so when should we apply?
    I have it where I have kohlarabi planted need to KILL it. also have it in flower gardens can it be killed.
    A

     

    Sedgehammer is meant more for nutsedge control in turf grass and it cannot be used near a vegetable garden or anything edible. For nutsedge in landscaped areas it is recommended to spot treat the sedge with a glyphosate or Round Up type product directly.  We recommend Roundup QuickPro 1.5 oz. packs for ease of use

    Q
    Use of SedgeHammer around the edge of a pond?
    Can you use SedgeHammer around the edge of a pond. Currently our pond level has dropped and I sprayed Rodeo herbicide around the edge of a stocked pond to kill a variety of weeds and cattail, but it does not seem to touch the yellow nutsedge. Any advice would be great.
    A
    SedgeHammer is not recommended to be used in or around bodies of water. According to the SedgeHammer Herbicide label, do not apply directly to water, to areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark.
    We recommend adding a surfactant in addition to the Rodeo. DyneAmic Surfactant will act as a sticking agent to help the Rodeo absorb quicker into the weed resulting in faster knockdown.

    Q
    Will SedgeHammer kill globe sedge, or just yellow and purple sedge?
    A

    SedgeHammer Herbicide will kill yellow and purple nutsedge but not globe sedge.  To control all 3 you would need to use something like the Dismiss Turf.

    Q
    Do I need to pull the dead weeds after applying SedgeHammer Herbicide?
    Sprayed landscape area and it's dying off, do I pull it out? Product works great but not sure of the next step when it starts dying off. Sprayed it in my landscape and would love to pull it out to clean up the areas. Is that ok?
    A

    After treating with SedgeHammer+ Herbicide it will take time to completely kill the treated sedge but because the dead sedge will eventually decompose, there is no need to pull out the dead weeds.

    Q
    Can I use SedgeHammer Herbicide in a flower bed with daylilies in it?
    A

    SedgeHammer Herbicide should not be applied as an over the top spray to desirable around groundcovers, ornamentals, vegetables, shrubs, trees, or flowers. Our best recommendation is to spot treat with a glyphosate product like Roundup QuikPro, taking care to not spray desirables.

    Q
    How soon can I apply Sedgehammer after applying a fungicide?
    We applied Scotts Lawn Fungus control today July 22.

    We apologize, we are not familiar with Scotts Lawn Fungus. Normally, there is not an issue with applying Sedghammer over a fungicide. We recommend to contact both manufacturers to be sure. Sedghammer is Gowan 800-643-0400.

    Q
    How do you kill mallow?
    My neighbors yard is covered in back and now spreading to his front. I have found patches of this weed in my yard. How do I stop the spread? If I kill in my yard and he doesn't treat his am I fighting a losing battle?
    A
    We would recommend using Sedgehammer Herbicide. It is labeled to control mallow after it has already emerged. Sedgehammer can be used on just about any type of lawn, St. Augustine included. The Sedgehammer will control it in your lawn but your neighbor would have to do the same thing in order to make sure it is not continually spreading. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

  • Asked by Kerry from Gilbert, Az
    05/03/2017
    Q
    What is the best pre-emergent to use to control nutgrass coming through the dirt where I have removed old sod?
    A

    Because sedges are so hard to control there aren't many pre emergents on the market that will work on nutgrass/sedge at all. Freehand is one that works well and can be used in a variety of bedding and turf areas.

    You can either spot treat with roundup or sedge control product like Sedgehammer for post emergent control over the nutgrass.

  • Asked by Kevin from Montville, Oh
    08/29/2015
    Q
    Can I spray SedgeHammer Herbicide on my hayfield with timothy planted in it, and will it effect the hay feeding?
    Also how much does the largest bottle make when mixed?
    A

    SedgeHammer Herbicide should not be used on pastures or grazing areas, and you should not treat around hay that will be used for animal feed. The SedgeHammer should not affect Timothy grass that may be contacted by the herbicide, although the product label does not specify information about this plant, so we would recommend spot treating a small area first before applying over a large area with this plant. The 1.33 oz bottle of SedgeHammer will yield about 40 gallons of finished solution. You should add 2 teaspoons of a non-ionic surfactant per gallon of water when diluting SedgeHammer from the larger bottle. The smaller packets already have a surfactant mixed in with the product.

    07/31/2017
    Q
    Can Sedgehammer Herbicide be mixed then be used at a later date?
    A

    Sedgehammer as well as any other product on the market needs to be used within 24-48 hours of mixing it up in your tank. Try to only mix up what you need at a time or see if there are other areas you can treat with the product for weed control to use all of what was mixed.
