    Deep-rooted sedge management?

    Have any other applicators/land owners dealt specifically with deep-rooted sedge? I'm working on a plan to suppress it (and eventually control it, if possible) in an area with seedling trees planted every 10ft. In places, the sedges have grown taller than the seedlings. I would love to simply nuke the whole area with a non-selective herbicide, but I have to keep the trees alive.

    Are there any selective or pre-emergent products on the market that anyone can recommend?

    Sedge hammer?

    Prodiamine?

    Thanks all.

    ProSedge and Monument are some other options but I use these in turfgrass not trees or ornamentals. Might check the label.

      We’ve have good luck in pastures with heavily concentrated roundup and dawn dish soap applied with an Australian weed wiper. Might be hard to do with trees that close together. How many acres are you talking about?

        I like to spray my pastures with a mixture of 2-4-D, Dicamba, & MSM. Knocks out broadleaf weeds, sedge, & puts a hurting on palmettos. Pretty sure it's the MSM that gets the sedge. MetaSulfuron-Methl. It's a granular, and trade names are "Patriot", or "MSM60".

          BroadBloom or Basagran herbicide . I been fight nutsedge for a couple years and it’s hard to get rid of. Takes multiple times, once in spring and once in the fall. I am trying to eliminate it in my food plots, that nutsedge is a hog attractant.
