I've been using Sedgehammer for 17 years now. Took over 5 years to exhaust all the nutlets in the front yard. (Entire "lawn" was nothing but nutsedge when we moved in.). Sprayed the yard 3 times per summer. The key is to spray before the new plants start developing new nutlets... at about the time they develop the 8th blade. Dawn dish liquid is my surfactant of choice. It breaks down the waxy coating on the blades to let the product be absorbed better. Use about a 1/4 teaspoon in a 3 gallon sprayer. Do not let them go to seed! They'll propagate like wildfire... And tick off the neighbors. That's why I'm still battling them to this day! The neighbors' nutsedge keeps sending seeds our way. Don't waste your money on the single serve packets.. If you (or your neighbors) have nutsedge, you'll easily hit the break even point with the bottle. And don't get lazy... Stay vigilant or they'll gain the upper hand on you. I'm still using the bottle I bought 16 years ago, when I realized there's no quick fix for an "infestation.". These days a 3 gallon mix lasts all summer. When the lawn was covered, I'd go through 2 tanks per treatment. Sedgehammer kills only nutsedge. It won't kill grass, flowers, or other weeds. I'll spray when its dry and the plants are thirsty, and when I know it won't rain for the rest out the day. Don't spray on a windy day, do wear long pants, and hold the sprayer nozzle close go the ground go keep from spraying yourself. Don't cut the lawn until at least the next day to allow the product to work its way down the blades. It will kill the plant, but not the nutlets...nothing kills those. Within 2 days you'll notice the nutsedge turn yellow/brown. Now its dead, but it won't wither. At this point just cut the lawn or pull it from the garden. Not so fun facts: Nutsedge propagates by seed, rhizomes and nutlets (kind or like mini tulip bulbs.) Each plant can produce dozens of nutlets. Each nutlet can produce dozens of new plants (Do that math!) Nutlets can sprout new plants year after year until they are exhausted. Nutlets can lay dormant for years, and re-activate when soil conditions are right. When you pull a plant, the nutlets break free and remain in the ground. Best of luck to you all!

Empero is a generic SedgeHammer. You can also use Sedge Ender. Both work great.

Actually, I pulled all nutsedge from my lawn by hands. About 10% came back next year. I kept pulling, they were completely eliminated by the third year.

Nutsedge has been haunting me for a few years first, I learned by mistake of pulling it and it multiplied, as you talked about. I found this stuff made by Ortho It’s a Nutsedge killer plus it kills 50 other weeds. Are used it and it wiped the stuff out. No Nutsedge for two years started seeing it last year a few here and there I’m getting ready now to sprayed again with the ortho Nutsedge killer. Only problem you can’t buy it in New York so I had to go to Jersey and I bought a case of it this way it’ll last me for many many years, the stuff works. That’s Ortho Nutsedge killer. PS this year and will try spraying it in the spring and in the fall this way and be a preventative for next year spring.

I've managed Nutgrass (sedge) by pulling it. I reach to the bottom and wiggle it out by the root, which is reddish. I don't see any of the multiple nuts shown. When I first got it, the lawn guy at Ace Hardware said pulling it will just cause it to spread so I bought a pricey specific herbicide for it ($40 2-part, not Sedgehammer, ~22 yrs ago). Killed adjacent Fescue grass but not the Nutgrass. It just pops up individually that I can pull out without spending much time. Sometimes returns in the same place, but more often at other spots in the yard, so perhaps seeds from wind or bird droppings.

Its popping up in spots in my lawn this year out of no where. Thanks for the info

The nutsedge in my yard sneers at Sedgehammer. It turns yellow for a while, then recovers completely. I've tried two treatments, 5 weeks apart. but once again, no dice. The recent rains here in Phoenix have brought it back with a vengeance. I guess I'll have to try the Ortho product.

I've had really good luck with SedgeStop or Vexis granules. I just sprinkle on growing ones and it kills them over time. And as far as I know you can use it later into the year.

Thanks. I’m getting ready to apply Sedgehammer and came across your video. I’ve used Tenacity a couple of times this summer (on other weeds + sedge), which works, but new sedge still popping up. Disappointed to read in other comments that this is perennial and will come back. 😫

Wow, 8 saw your video by accident. This is exactly what I have along my new driveway! Brought in about 3 tons of topsoil to finish grade along driveway, waiting till next month to plant new grass seed, and these annoying weeds keep popping up. New dirt=new weeds!

I’ve also used a product called Tenacity with great results.

Very informative! I thought that type of grass was a young crabgrass of some sort… I have that and crabgrass so so it’s nice to know I’m fighting both lol thank you for the information

thanks for this. I'm fighting nutsedge in my perennial beds. I painted Sedgehammer on each little piece of nutsedge I can find- since I'm afraid to spray over my expensive daylilies. After 4 days, nutsedge looks unhappy. I'm hoping after two weeks it will look dead. Suggestions?

Thank you so much! How to get rid of brown patches in my lawn.

Best explanation and solution!

Thank you because I was going to pull them.

Please send us an updated video showing it died. From what I read on the plat site, it can't be killed. It's roots actually are 18in or more deep and they run in a tubular system or something like that. Good luck!

pulling it does work but you would need to do that every week for a month or 2 before the plant exhausted its self and had nothing left. Sedgehammer takes more then one treatment as well that weed is a real pain in the ass to get rid of.

Love the kbg idea as a fix due to the rhizome action

You can pull it out of ground if it has been wet. Will pull right out with root and all

Sedgehammer worked OK on nutsedge but only SUPPRESSES Kyllinga; which is the more invasive weed near Houston and my biggest problem. To get both you need Dismiss or a generic (Sulfentrazone Herbicide). Both Sedgehammer and Dismiss are extremely expensive but you only need 1/2 teaspoon per gallon, so the Dismiss 6 oz bottle ($67-95) lasts me 3 years. The Green Kyllinga is brown in 2 days and the nutsedge is starting to die. Dismiss also kills Dollarweed and Spurge.

they say sugar kills it also. But it lowers nitrogen in the ground to

The individual packs are on Amazon for less than $12 each...

Will Sedgehammer hurt any plants, bushes, shrubs, etc, if it comes in contact when spraying the nutsedge?

I would like to see your grass after two weeks. Thanks

Send an update video in two weeks to see how well it did?

Also I find where nutsedge is so are Bermuda grass mites ugh never ending 😢

Use landscaping molasses granular. It really works!

I don't know what you're doing wrong but, i pull mine by hand without getting the root and it never comes back.

Good video, thanks. Does it also kill the nut, or just the surface plant...

Do you have to rake the nut seed up once it is dead to put down new grass seed

Can sedge hammer and surfactant be applied on St. Augustine grass. Thanks

It's all turning yellow now. Can I pull it up?

I've seen this weed but only where the ground was wet for long periods

Thank you for the video

I'm hearing the baking soda works well to kill the nutsedge and even the roots if you apply it correctly.

Ive applied Sedgehammer several times and it does not work.

What’s the brand of backpack sprayer do you use?

Glad I watched this. I was getting ready to go out and pull the nutsedge from my lawn new sod... It looks like the "sedgehammer" does not affect the regular grass... Will it kill grass too if I'm not careful? Thanks...

What happens if I do not treat the nutsedge...will it die off on its own? Can sledgehammer also kill the grass? Thank You!

Would have been nice to see the results

I will not put down poison during growing season. It stunts the growth of my good grass

I have tons of nutsedge in my vegetable garden. If I spray now (August), when will it be safe to plant vegetables again?

will this kill veggies? These things are popping up in my garden and one bed in particular has it bad but i have a load of sweet potaoes growing in it as well. Can this be used?

It's been a year since this video was posted. How did the Sedgehammer work? Did it do anything to your lawn? I've seen videos where a nutsedge herbicide was applied and it killed the nutsedge, but also turned the lawn brown in those areas. Did you have any issues like that?

You can’t kill it! That’s all the Lawns in airzona are.

That Sedhehammer is good stuff. Certainty kills it too because I mix Certainty with Celsius WG. That combination kills 99.9% of the weeds in my yard.

We had a lot of late evening rain this summer which brought me Pythium and nutsedge as well. Not to mention I had a crane fly infestation. Too much water is a big problem for lawns. This is the last season I think I will use PRG. It seems to be too susceptible to fungus for me.

Hello. Can the herbicide be applied on Bermuda lawns?

Does Sedgehammer need to be watered in? I suppose not because the instructions say not to apply when rain is forecast, but I also understand it's a systemic herbicide which I thought meant watering in so it would work its way down to the roots and be absorbed by them.

My lawncare service acts like it can't be gotten rid of. Is there a preferred time of year to treat? I have so much that I may do it right before overseeding in the fall.

¿Do you use that 'sticky' additive to overcome the leaf's natural water repel surface tension? ¿Or does this nutsedge not have such a leaf property? Thanks for making and posting this video. I have some of this on one side of our house. (Also, another problem is this pink/globe clover: disgusting, by the road/sidewalk). Thanks again.

Thank you , I thought this was crabgrass in my yard. Will image kill this as well?

My neighbor had sod brought in and Nutsedge was in it, can you spray new sod with it?

Great vid! Curious though; after applying the product, (2-3 weeks later) does it turn the nutsedge brown or white?

I have tried it and followed the instructions. It did nothing.

What type of sprayer were you using to apply this application?

Hi any idea of what I can use to get rid of bent grass that’s made it’s way into my bluegrass back yard. It’s terrible. Thanks.

Is there any magic potion that kills nutsedge AND wild violet or creeping Charlie?

Hi I have tenacity with surfactant and a dye to know where a sprayed. Can I add the herbicide to that and treat the area? Lastly the area of Nutsedge is curbside and great from me its in a almost perfect square about 3 x 2 ft area. Is it still okay to put the whole packet in a gallon of water? Thank you in advance.

Is this harmful to dogs?!

The sedgegrass I have is in a couple of beds not in the lawn itself. I sprayed and it seems to be working . It was tall when I applied the product. My question is after the 2 weeks or so - can I then pull it out? or do I just cut it way down ? Trying to figure out how to clean up the flower beds that it's settled in.

Wow, $66.69 for 1.3 oz of the powder. I've had success with 2-4-D.

Can I mix this sedge hammer with tenacity or par 3?

Everyone wants to show you how to kill the weed. However, weeds in my lawn aren’t showing until temperatures are bumbing 100.

Is this stuff safe to use on southern lawns, ie Saint Augustine?

How to use if the weed is very close to my perennial flower plants?? Please help!

What about Sedge ender by bonide? Good product?

Can this product be used near/next to trees and shrubs without killing them?

Do you have an “after” video?

Will this also kill Johnson Grass on a standard US lawn?

I use Sedgehammer and it works well. But when I get onevarea done, another areavalwaysvseems to pop up. So, can you use Sedgehammer as a pre-emergent? No surfactant and watering it into the soil? If not, is there a pre-emergent for Yellow Nutsedge?

Is that herbicide safe for st augustine grass?

I don't think temperature really maters for Sedgehammer?

Is it safe for pets?

Is this safe for centipede grass?

What would work better for this sledgehammer or tenacity?

Thx! HOA doesn't seem to get it!!!

Where do you by it?

Will the Sedgehammer kill perennials too? Also, can it be used in beds where herbs or vegetables are grown?

Is this a yearly procedure or is it one and done

When can you water?

Where are the after pictures?

Blindside works much better

Wil this stuff harm/kill grass?

Is this toxic for pets?

Man I pulled mine out I so regret that

How can i kill elephant grass?

At 70, I'm not worried about getting cancer from this.

Nutsedge is not a grass. It looks similar to grass.

Your lawn looks bad! 😂

Diarrhea

I'd rather leave the nutsedge and skip the cancer. I won't be thinking of my nice green lawn as the doctor is removing the tumors from me or my dog.
