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.
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.
If you have SedgeHammer Herbicide in the packets, you do not need to measure anything as the packets are pre-measured. If you have SedgeHammer in the 1.33 oz. bottle and have lost the spoon, we can contact the manufacturer to see if we can have a new spoon sent to you. Without the spoon you likely would need a scale that can measure in grams. If you would like us to try and send you the spoon just email us back with your address, or you can contact the manufacturer directly at 800-883-1844.
We recommend that you apply quinclorac separately from the small Sedgehammer packets since the Sedgehammer packet already contains a surfactant. Since quinclorac products generally require a more aggressive methylated seed oil surfactant, mixing these would cause extra stress on your desirable grass and may be too harsh.
SedgeHammer Herbicide should not be applied within 2 days before or 2 days after mowing.
SedgeHammer Herbicide should NOT be applied as an over-the-top spray to desirable flowers, ornamentals, vegetables, shrubs or trees. You would have to very carefully spot treat the sedge only avoiding any contact with the vinca

Triad Select Herbicide can be tank mixed with Sedgehammer to treat broadleaf weeds but would not take the place of a Non Ionic Surfactant.
