Abstract/Contents: | "Yellow nutsedge (Cyperus esculentus) is the primary sedge species found in Indiana and it is a tough to control perennial weed in turf. Yellow nutsedge is especially problematic in wet, poorly drained areas. Unfortunately, there are no cultural controls (mowing, fertilizer, etc.) effective at combating this weed other than efforts to reduce soil moisture, thus herbicides are required for control. Regardless of herbicide selection, yellow nutsedge will require multiple applications for control. Sedgehammer (halosulfuron) is an effective yellow nutsedge herbicide that is safe on all turf species but requires the addition of a non-ionic surfactant for best results. The objective of this experiment was to evaluate a new formulation of Sedgehammer+ (halosulfuron + surfactant), which contains a surfactant, for control of yellow nutsedge. Sedgehammer+ provided control higher than Dismiss (sulfentrazone) at 8 oz/A after a single application, but following the sequential application of both herbicides on 12 July their control was equivalent for the remainder of the growing season. These results confirm the efficacy of a new halosulfuron formulation (Sedgehammer+) is effective for controlling yellow nutsedge. The product became available in 2011 and is sold in prepackaged sizes for treating 1000 ft2 of turf." |
