  • Asked by Alma from El Paso, Tx
    08/04/2014
    Q
    Is it safe to use Sedgehammer directly around the base of established trees in the lawn?
    I have a lawn that is almost completely nutgrass. I have mature mulberry and ash tress in the lawn as well. I don't want to kill my trees but the nutgrass has completely taken over. Is it safe to spray Sedgehammer directly over the lawn that covers the roots of my trees? Thank you for such an informative website!!!
    A
    Sedgehammer may be applied to nutsedge that is at the base of a tree without harming the tree as long as you do not spray over top the tree as a broadcast. Try to be careful of overspray that may get on the tree as the label states that sprays directed over-the-top of trees may lead to damage of the tree.

  • Asked by Cindy from Scottsdale, Az
    08/24/2014
    Q
    Will Sedgehammer harm our fruit trees
    Grapefruit, orange and Lemmon
    A
    The Sedgehammer herbicide kills nutsedge without injury to turfgrass, established ornamentals, shrubs, and/or trees. 

    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. If you want more details on how using SedgeHammer to close to edibles can affect them, you can contact the manufacturer Gowan at (800) 883-1844.

  • Asked by Josh from Woodbury, Mn
    09/17/2017
    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.

  • Asked by Jose from Miami, Fl
    03/14/2016
    Q
    What can I use to control and kill Nutsedge and creeping signal grass on St Augustine grass?
    Miami Fl area
    A

    For nutsedge control it is best treated using something like Sedgehammer Herbicide which is specifically designed for it and is also for some other broadleaf weeds.  For signal grass is it best treated with a pre-emergent like Prodiamine 65 WDG but complete control is not always possible with this weed as it is a very difficult weed to control.  You could also spot treat with a glyphosate based product like GlyPhoSel Pro and then reseed/so the area.  The University of Florida has some information here about.
