    Will SedgeHammer work to kill post emergent poa anna? Will it act as a preemergent to kill poa annua seeds?

  • 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.

  • 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 Nick from San Gabriel,california
    08/21/2014
    Q
    After applying SedgeHammer to some nut grass in planter area, how long do have to wait to put in azalea plant?
    I want to put azalea plants in area where nut grass is located.
    A
    Per the manufacturer, you would need to wait a few months in order to plant the azaleas as you will have to do multiple treatments of SedgeHammer. When you do plant them, make sure you are not using the soil that was treated with SedgeHammer. Use either topsoil or untreated soil from another area on the property. They did also recommend that you plant the plant first, get the roots established and then use the SedgeHammer. Do not spray direct on the azaleas to avoid damage. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

  • 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.

    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?
