SedgeHammer herbicide knocks out nutsedge without injury to turfgrass, established ornamentals, shrubs, and/or trees. SedgeHammer provides post-emergence control of both purple and yellow nutsedge. SedgeHammer also controls many broadleaf weeds and suppresses kylling. A low use rate and a relatively short half life mean safety to the environment.
Application Considerations:- May be tank mixed with Glyphosate herbicide for application as a directed spray in landscaped or fallow areas
- Use only nonionic surfactants such as De-Fac 820 with SedgeHammer that contain at least 80% active material
- Best results are obtained with no rainfall or irrigation for at least 4 hours
Good Agricultural Practices:- Calibrate application equipment prior to application
- For optimum results, do not mow turf for 2 days before or 2 days after application

All StatesSedgeHammer (formally Manage herbicide), is the Best product we have found to control nutsedge. SedgeHammer is labeled for use in all 50 of the United States. Labeling laws prevent us from selling SedgeHammer (Manage) outside of the US.
SedgeHammer (Manage) CANNOT be used in vegetable gardens. SedgeHammer (Manage) maybe used as a 'directed spray' around ornamentals which is lawyer-speak for 'if the plant dies, it ain't our fault". So be careful around ornamentals. The label calls for the use of a non-ionic surfactant, which means to add some Dawn Detergent to help the Manage get into the plant.
The first application of SedgeHamer (Manage) will control up to 95% of the existing nutsedge. Because nutsedge spreads underground by tubers and 'nuts', and above ground by seed it will be necessary to make multiple applications to totally contol the weed. Nutsedge thrives in wet soils, so reducing the frequency of watering with your irrigation system will help control the spread of nutsedge. In addition, we have a theory that for every ton of top soil you apply to your lawn, you are planting at least 500 pounds of weed seeds. Try to avoid bringing in top soil unless absolutely necessary. We also recommend that you not roto-till your lawn. Weed seeds can lie dormant in the soil for years (crabgrass seeds have been known to live 15 years in the soil) until brought to the surface so they can germinate.
