Reminds me of my bermuda grass infested lawn! Took out the nutsedge earlier this summer.

With what? I've used everything short of a shotgun & it never buys me more than a few months control.

Update to an oldie. Sprayed on Monday night, still the same great Sedge Ender product at 4 oz per gallon.

reeljake: trying not to continue to hijack that other thread. I saw the bonide sedge ender label, is that what you are using? It has a higher app rate for bermudagrass than for st. Augustine grass (which I have), and mentions it only suppresses at lower rates. Must be harsher on St. Augustine. Nonetheless your photos are impressive, and I wonder how effective it would be St. Augustine. Do you mix 5.5 oz/gal and spot spray until wet? Did you use a surfactant?

Thanks

TS Harp - I have used another product with same active ingredient as Sedge Ender on my St. Augustine (ortho Nutsedge killer) and it turned my St. augustine orange and crispy, even though labeled for St. Augustine. Sedgehammer had zero effects on my St. Augustine, but is a slower kill (slowly melts away after 3 weeks).

Indeed, bonide Sedge Ender. Suppression is all you can ever hope for on nutsedge, it never goes away. In dry years, I've seen 99% control, but as soon as we get a wet year like 2016, BOOM it's back in full effect.

I use it at 4 oz per gallon on my Bermuda, I've never done 5.5. When I do my mother in laws yard & beds I use 3oz per gallon because she has St. Aug--It's never caused any damage to her lawn, but same effect on the Sedge.

They have a dry version called weed beater complete that I was thoroughly unimpressed with. Same active ingredients as far as I could tell, but dry delivery did not produce the same result.

For the record, sedgehammer is a great product, I just find it too pricey & too hard to mix, plus it doesn't have the pre emergent addition that Sedge Ender has. The ortho stuff works OK, but until it's available as a concentrate with a preM & marker built in, plus Crabgrass control, I won't be buying it. The bonide product just ticks all the boxes for me, I think it was made for Houston!

Funny I tried Weed Beater Complete in early Spring this year and I don't think it killed one weed. I will have to try the Sedge Ender at the lower rate once I finish the Sedgehammer I have. The addition of prodiamine is a big plus.

I too use Sedge Ender here in N. TX and it works better then anything else that I have tried on my St. Augustine. I can even use it in my rose bed & in Mondo Grass.

Interesting comments. reeljake does your label say to use 5.5 oz/gal in Bermuda and 4 in st. Aug?. That's what I saw online but maybe it was a different version.

Yup, that's what the label says. I use it a little weaker & it still does the job. I would never go over label recommended concentration though.

If I try that product I'll start with 3 oz, like you did. Thanks
