For Selective Post-Emergence control of Nutgrass in Sugarcane, Corn/Maize and Sorghum and for Selectiv·e Post-Emergence Control of Nutgrass and Mullumbimby couch in Turf. Also for the Control of Nutgrass in Cotton using Shielded Sprayers.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS


Sedgehammer Herbicide is a dry flowable granule, which disperses in water. Sedgehammer can be used for selective post-emergence control of Nutgrass in Sugarcane, Corn/Maize and Sorghum and for the selective post-emergence control of Nutgrass and Mullumbimby couch in Turf. May also be used for the control of Nutgrass in Cotton using shielded sprayers.
Symptoms of weed control are a gradual yellowing of foliage and seed heads followed by desiccation. Initial symptoms may take 7-10 days to be noticeable, with full effects occurring 4 to 6 weeks after treatment. Sedgehammer Herbicide should be applied to actively growing weeds when new growth has reached a minimum of 5cm of new leaf growth for Nutgrass or 2cm for Mullumbimby couch. Apply follow-up treatments if sufficient new growth warrants re-treatment. Irrigation or rainfall within two hours of application will reduce control. Drought stress after treatment may also reduce control.

MIXING


Sedgehammer Herbicide is a dry flowable granule that disperses in water. Add the measured amount gradually to a partly filled spray tank, while maintaining continuous bypass agitation. Add the surfactant near the end of the filling process to avoid excessive foaming. Remove the hose from the mixing tank immediately after filling to avoid siphoning back into the water source. If allowed to stand, ensure that the mixture is thoroughly agitated before re-commencing spraying. Use the mixture within one day.

COMPATIBILITY


Sedgehammer Herbicide is compatible with glyphosate, dicamba/MCPA and bromoxynii/MCPA mixtures and amine formulations of 2,4-D. Read and follow all label directions, restraints plantback periods, withholding periods, regional use restrictions and safety directions for tank mix products. Tank mixing with paraquat or ametryn may result in reduced weed control. Organophosphate insecticides should not be tank mixed or applied 7 days prior or 3 days after application of Sedgehammer, as severe crop injury may result.
