    SedgeHammer+ Turf Herbicide
    0.5 oz (13.5 grams)
    SedgeHammer herbicide kills nutsedge without injury to turfgrass, established ornamentals, shrubs, and/or trees. SedgeHammer provides post-emergence control of both purple nutsedge and yellow nutsedge.
    SedgeHammer
    also controls many broadleaf weeds and suppresses kyllinga. Nutsedge is controlled after emergence in cool and warm season turf grasses such as St. Augustinegrass, Bermudagrass, Kentucky Bluegrass, tall and fine fescue, and perennial ryegrass. Sedgehammer is considered one of the more "gentle to turfgrass" products and pets and people can return to the treated area once the spray dries.
    Sedgehammer is the exact same product as Manage Herbicide.
    The Gowan Company purchased the Manage product and its rights to use from Monsanto in early 2005 and now sells the very same product as Sedgehammer.

    How SedgeHammer Herbicide Works
    SedgeHammer is a water-soluble granule formulation that is mixed with water and applied to target plants with a sprayer. SedgeHammer is a member of the sulfonylurea family, an ALS (acetolactate) enzyme inhibiting herbicide. The active ingredient is absorbed into leaf tissue as quickly as 24 to 48 hours after application, then translocated through the plant’s vascular system. The herbicide quickly inhibits amino acids, halting cell division and plant growth in both roots and shoots, causing eventual death in target plants.
    A nonionic surfactant is an additive that aids the penetration of SedgeHammer into the plant tissue. Surfactants are not only used in horticulture but are commonly used in many cleaning products. Their properties enable the herbicide to “sheet” or spread across the surface of a plant or weed. It is always recommended that a surfactant be used to help SedgeHammer penetrate the waxy layer of the nutsedge leaf. The surfactant also aids in dispersing the water droplets evenly across the leaf tissues and facilitates adsorption into the vascular system of the plant.

    WEEDS CONTROLLED WITH SEDGEHAMMER:

    Target Uses of SedgeHammer
    SedgeHammer Herbicide is a selective, post-emergent herbicide concentrate designed specifically to kill nutsedge and other broadleaf weeds without injury to turfgrasses, established ornamentals, shrubs, or trees. SedgeHammer can be used in both warm-season and cool-season turfgrasses, landscaped areas, and other non-crop areas.
    SedgeHammer will not prevent germination of most labeled target weeds. Rather, it should be applied to actively growing weeds. If turfgrass or nutsedge is under stress, poor control may result. Also, desirable turfgrass, ornamentals, and trees should be well established before application.
    Do not apply to edible plants or gardens.
    *Note that weeds can develop resistance to herbicides. To minimize the potential for resistance development and/or to control resistant weed biotypes, use a variety of cultural, mechanical, and chemical weed control tactics. Rotate with herbicides having other modes of action.
    ACTIVE INGREDIENT: 13.5 g package – Halosulfuron-methyl 5%
    SedgeHammer Application Instructions
    How to Use Sedgehammer Herbicide
    SedgeHammer is a powder concentrate to be diluted with water and applied with a pump sprayer. SedgeHammer should not be applied with hose-end sprayers since they are far less accurate than hand pump sprayers. When applying, spray the weeds thoroughly and wet the entire leaf surface of the undesirable plants. For best results, spray nutsedge after it has reached the 3 to 8 leaf stage of growth.
    SedgeHammer often works with one application, but depending on the size and age of the nutsedge a second treatment may be required 6 to 10 weeks after the initial treatment. See “Other Tips” below for more information.
    Mixing Instructions
    The 13.5 gram packets already contain a surfactant, so you only need to mix the contents of the packet itself with a gallon of water. See below for further details. Always read the product label completely before use.
    Each 13.5 g packet makes 1 gallon of finished solution and already contains a surfactant. Each gallon of finished solution covers approximately 1,000 square feet.
    Standard Application Dilution rates / Mixing Ratios for SedgeHammer:
    *13.5 g packet – Entire contents of 1 packet (0.5 oz.) per gallon of water – Ideal for spot treatments

    Commercial and residential turf and other non-crop sites including: airports, cemeteries, fallow areas, golf courses, landscaped areas, public recreation areas, residential property, roadsides, school grounds, sports fields, landscaped areas with established woody ornamentals, fairgrounds, race tracks, tennis courts, campgrounds, and rights-of-way
    Tolerant Turfgrasses

    This rate of product will control horsetail that is less than 6 inches tall and suppress horsetail that is greater than 6 inches tall. Herbicide symptoms are likely to show within 2 weeks as a necrotic ring at the base of the plant, even though the leaves and stems remain green and a deep leathery green in color.
    SedgeHammer Features
    May be tank mixed with Glyphosate herbicides in areas such as rights-of-way or fallow land.
    Small (13.5 g) packets already contain surfactant.
    Superior control of yellow and purples nutsedges.

    Extra Tips for Using SedgeHammer
    For best results, do not mow turf for 2 days before or 2 days after application.
    SedgeHammer is effective if no rainfall occurs within 3 hours, but best results are obtained with no rainfall or irrigation for at least 4 hours.
    Use only in established turfgrass: allow turf to develop a good root system and uniform stand before application.
    Results may take 5-7 days to begin to appear.
    Do not apply when turfgrass or nutsedge is under stress.
    Do not apply when temperatures exceed 85 degrees F.
    Do not apply to golf course putting greens.
    For transplanted woody ornamentals, allow 3 months after transplanting before applying this product.
    When using in fallow areas, allow 4 weeks between application and transplanting of woody ornamentals or seeding or sodding of turfgrass.
    SedgeHammer may remain active in the soil up to 3 years after application.
    Store concentrate under cool, dry conditions.
