    What type of grass is it safe to use Hi-Yield 2, 4-D Selective Weed Killer and what rate for 1gal of water?
    A

    Q
    Will 24-d kill Purple Sedge (including the tuber)
    I am wanting to plant a vegetable garden in an area that has become overrun with purple sedge - can I get rid of the sedge using 24-d and if so can I follow up and use the area to grow vegetables?
    A
    Hi-Yield 2, 4-D Selective Weed Killer is not labeled to control sedge.  What you could use instead is a glyphosate type product that will kill anything.  The GlyPhoSel Pro would be a good option and will break down in the soil within about 1 week after its sprayed on the weeds/grasses

  • Asked by Frank from Jacksonville, Fl. 32244
    05/21/2014
    Q
    Will Hi-Yield 2,4d kill crabgrass or nutsedge?
    A
    Hi Yield 2, 4-D is not labeled to kill/control nutsedge or crabgrass as it is primarily used for more common broad leaf weed control. Due to nutsedge being a difficult weed to control, often you need a very specific product just for the nutsedge in the yard and will need to use something like Sedgehammer. If you have warm season grasses (with the exception of St Augustine grass) Dismiss South will control broadleaf weeds, crabgrass and nutsedge. If you would like to give us the type of lawn you have, how much area you are looking to treat, and if there are any other weeds you are looking to target in particular, we can try to find a product best suited to your specific needs.

    Q
    How can you call this "Hi-Yield" when the active ingredient (dimethylamine salt of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) is only 11.84%? Most competing products have a concentration of four times that! More like Low-Yield?
    A
    We do not manufacture the product nor do we have any decision on the percentage of the active ingredient that is included in the product or the decision on selecting a name for the product. We are an online retail distributor. The manufacturer of the product is VPG. They can be reached at 888.583.5296.

    Q
    Will Hi-Yield 2, 4-D Weed Killer kill English Ivy?
    I see that the label says poison ivy, but know that English Ivy is sometimes harder to kill. The ivy is all over the property we just purchased. Thanks!
    A
    Hi-Yield 2, 4-D is not labeled to control English Ivy so we cannot recommend it for this use.  We do carry the Crossbow that is labeled for it with a higher percentage of the active ingredient.

    Q
    Use of Hi-Yield 2,4-D
    Desire: 1. To spray around shrubs. 2. Kill poison ivy n flower bed by painting leaf with brush. 3. To kill weeds under large trees.4. To kill wild grape vines. I've just heard of your product and I am excited to use it! I've adapted a cylindrical device at the end of my sprayers, to limit coverage of spray pattern n stop drift. Will spray penetrate the ground around shrubs and harm shrubs? How long does your weed killer last? Do you have a weed killer and pre-emergent combo spray? If not, do know of one? Thank you.
    A

    Hi-Yield 2, 4D Selective Weed Killer is labeled for use on lawns, around ponds, drainage ditchbanks, pastures and rangelands. It should not be used on shrubs. It should not penetrate the ground and kill the shrubs. It should last for the entire season but if not, another application can be made after 30 days.

    For a pre-emergence and post-emergent combination, we would recommend using Dimension 2EW. You will use .33 - .73 fl. oz. per 1,000 sq. ft. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

    Q
    Spraying around fruit trees with exposed roots
    I have a lot of growth around my fruit trees (apple, pear and peach} and most have exposed roots. I'm mostly wanting to kill the poison ivy as I can't use the weed trimmer on it without getting it on me. Would it harm the trees or the fruit?
    A
    Hi-Yield 2, 4-D Selective Weed Killer is labeled to only kill broadleaf weeds and should not harm mature trees.  Be sure none of the roots are cut before applying the product so the tree does not absord the weed killer.  Another option would be to use the all natural Avenger Weed Killer Concentrate which is OMRI listed and approved for Organic Gardening and Organic Production by the USDA.
