Customer Reviews for ProSedge Herbicide

I used this last year, and quite a bit less sedge has come up so far. Like all sedge control products, it will be a multi-year project, requiring multiple applications. The hardest part is measuring out the product, an accurate scale is a must. (I tend to mix 1 gallon of product at a time, but for spot treating, I mix up 1 quart). The little packet is convenient, but the bottle is alot more affordable. Be sure to use a spreader sticker.

Took care of our nutgrass problem with one application. You have to be patient ---- It took one week to turn the grass yellow and another two weeks for it to die.

This is the only product I've used that actually kills nutsedge. However, it's most effective when applied when it first starts to grow in spring. Though I've had it work in summer and fall, it typically takes more than 1 dose to work then.

The nutsedge is yellowing gradually 2 weeks from application. No damage to nearby ornamentals. New untreated sprouts still emerging so we will retreat, but the battle is on! Areas treated by Glyphosate previously killed the plants but caused multiple sprouting response that got out of control quickly. Recommend leaving yellowing sedges in the ground until sprouting stops.

This product works great on nut ledge. It takes a couple days to see results but you will definitely see them.

Here in No VA, the short name for this stuff is "Nut Grass." I have been in battle mode for nearly three years and during this period I have received lots of advise as to what I should do. This advise has ranged from "just pull it out, you will never get rid of it," to "molasses will do the trick--just pour it on each clump of the nut grass." I have tried many of the commercial products as well. Pulling it out has worked best. A local garden shop said try "ProSedge Herbicide." All the university studies say it is the only way to go. So, I bought it, $25.00 plus tax. I applied one gallon of the solution to just the areas where I saw the nut grass growing--the bring green. I used a one gallon sprayer. I waited four days, and could see a big difference, except for the area, where the nut grass first started. So, I came to these folks, throug the Web, and bought another package (at half of what I was paying). I applied two gallons. For the most recent growth, the nut grass was gone in about three to five days (it varied). However, the original growth area was still a problem. But the second application was starting to eat away at the nut grass. I would recommend this product. It beats three to four hours of pulling the nut grass out. It is simple to use. I opened the package and dropped the packet in the water and added a table spoon of foliage stuff so the Herbicide sticks to the grass. It only attacked the nut grass. My tall fescue grass kept growing. It will now be a regular on my shopping list.

I applied Prosedge to my flower garden a bit heavier than directions, first time about a month ago. After about two weeks, it looked as if nothing changed much, only slight wilting. Then about the third week, there was extensive die off. This is the fifth week since first application and there is little Sedge life left. I just made a final application to kill the few surviving plants. This stuff works!

I used ProSedge one week ago.I mixed it according to directions and applied it liberally to the nutedge growing in my lawn. I checked it yesterday and there is no evidence of ProSedge having any effect on it. It may take longer than a week. If so, I will let you know.

  Expert response:
ProSedge can take about 2 weeks before you start seeing complete results. Please keep us posted!

I am a new user and have only applied one application, but it seems to kill the nut grass faster than any other product (Sedge Hammer) I have used in the past. Very satisfied so far.

My yard is over an acre and I had a bumper crop of Nut Sedge. Bought ProSedge and Non-Ionic Surfactant and simply followed the directions. In one week most all of the Nut Sedge was yellow and no longer actively growing; easy to tell where I missed!

Applied per directions. Very slow to act, but it does seem to be doing a good job at killing the sedge. I have used Dismiss in the past and it acts quicker. It takes a good seven days before you start seeing results. I would buy the product again.

Sprayed the nutsedge last week. It is turning yellow so hopefully I'll get rid of it. I had a few spots in the yard that was heavy with sedge so I may have to apply another app. Product works great.

One spot application to several yearly troublesome areas, now two weeks later all the sedge has gone yellow and is dying. This product appears to be performing better than I expected and so far receives my highest recommendation. Real test will be if the sedge shows up next season......have my fingers crossed and will comment on the results at that time.

I have used this for a few years now. It is great for reducing the nut-grasses within my existing lawn. With repeated applications, it works in areas where the nut-grasses become prolific because the soil has been disturbed. That allows my centipede to creep for better lawn coverage.

I used this product 2 years ago and it worked fine. However, I've used this twice in the last 6 weeks and it is not working. I followed the directions.

There are a few factors such as rainfall, drought or recently mowed lawns which can change the efficacy of herbicides. Please give our customer care team a call so we can assist you with trouble shooting your application 866-581-7378

I was trying to control a bad stand of Yellow Nutsedge in my lawn. Prosedge succeeded in knocking it back in one pass, without any noticeable damage to the grass of the lawn. I will be following it up later this season & next to prevent it from getting back to as bad as it was this year.

I bought 2 of these and applied as instructed. It worked in some spots but the majority of my problem areas remain unchanged. Guess I'll try the (SedgeHammer Herbicide) and hope for better results.

I have been battling Nutsedge in my yard for years. I've tried several different products repetitively hoping that higher dosage and repeated applications would somehow end my battle. They didn't. The other products would weaken plants but they seemed to come back stronger. I had avoided sedgehammer Due to the cost. For the size of my yard it just was not possible If I had to follow up with multiple applications. When I saw this had the same active Ingredient and realized I could treat my yard multiple (10) times for less than the cost of one application of the Name brand I figured it was worth a shot. Within a couple days the nutsedge began to yellow and now it's all brown. I did only spot treat my yard I can definitely tell the areas I missed. Very impressed with this product.

I have to admit that I mixed the chemical a bit on the heavy side. After just one application I noticed within four days the sedge grass began to turn yellow, seven days the sedge grass was brown. Two weeks the sedge grass was gone and the St. Augustine grass began to fill in the bare spots left by the dead sedge grass. I highly recommend this chemical to flat-out kill sedge grass infestations. Lastly, this product caused no issues / harm to my St. Augustine and other sensitive flowers and plants.

I think this is doing the trick. I am at day 13 since application and 99%of the nutsedge looks extremely sick. I had a very heavy infestation, so I am sure another application in 4 weeks will be in order, but it appears it will be well under control.

Works great but takes awhile to show results. Don't expect the weeds to die over night.

Received my order in a very timely manner. Have used the first application, and the sedge grass seems to be dying. Will withhold my final analysis for another month or two. But, I am getting ready to place another order. So, I would say, very satisfied.

I used it as directed for patches in my back yard. It has now turned yellow and appears to be dying off. Of course we know it may come back requiring a 2nd treatment but that's OK. I'm after it now and I will win! I also used the non-ionic surfactant which is a must.

I used the entire contents of the 1.33 oz. bottle in 40 gallons of water plus 16 oz. of non-ionic surfactant in my PTO sprayer to treat some nutsedge infestations in my deer & turkey food plots. It kills very effectively, just don't expect it to be "overnight". It takes the better part of two weeks for the tops of the sedge plants to start turning yellow but eventually they will completely die.

OK, so I was skeptical at first, given that nutsedge will survive a heavy dose of glyphosate. But work it does! I've tried it both in the one-gallon mix packets for spot treatments around the yard and the 1.33 oz. bottle for use in my PTO-drive sprayer for use in food plots. Don't expect a "next morning" kill. It takes about a week to ten days before results are seen. The nutsedge will begin turning yellow at first then it dies. If you get good coverage with your spray it appears to have some residual effect up into the next growing season, too. It is pricey, but nothing else that I've found will kill the stuff. Don't forget to add a surfactant to the 1.33 oz. bottle mixes. The small packets contain a surfactant already, the 1.33 oz. bottle does not. I use one quart of NIS per 40-gallon sprayer tank mix.
