👍Best info I’ve seen yet on nutsage & treatment. I’ve had this junk for years & could never get rid of it. Now I’ll try the chemical made to treat it. Thx ✌️(SUB’d)
Boy am i glad i watched your video!!!!!!! I saw some, what i thought was, beautiful tall grass with healthy thick tall blades of grass in my flower bed. Some of it was blocking one of my sprinklers. A neighbor suggested i cut that grass lower so the water could get to a dry area of my lawn. I scowled and said "Ahhh! But i LOVE that grass! It's so pretty. I don't want to cut it back!" Soooo, i decided, rather than cut back that beautiful tall grass, i would gently pull it up using a small shovel, as not to damage the roots, and transplant it in another area of my flowerbed. :-) However, as i was doing so, painstakingly re-planting this pretty grass, i saw one of the stocks producing a green cluster of spikey nasty looking things. I thought to myself, 'uh oh. I DON'T want a plant that is going to produce STICKERS! So, i, wisely, decided to Google my mysterious pretty tall grass plant. It took me quite awhile, but i FINALLY came across YOUR video! Uh oh! 'triangular shaped stocks'! 'rhizomes'! You did such a good job on your video, that i could tell my pretty grass looked JUST LIKE what you showed on your video! Oh well. :-( Off i went, immediately, gently, and thoroughly uprooting every Yellow Nut Sedge i could find!!!!!!! THANK YOU sir for your video!!!!!!!! Hopefully i will be able to keep them out of my flowerbed and yard. Not all BEAUTIFUL things are what they seem! :-\ I still don't know WHY Yellow Nut Sedge is so bad, but i figure, i would rather be safe than sorry. Thank you again! Ruth.
I think it's sad that you pulled it out and ignored your LOVE. It has many medicinal benefits that she wanted to share with you. That is why you felt the love. Listen to yourself instead of others bc what is right for one person might not be for someone else. I am going to get some nutgrass now for the root's medicine. The nuts that stay on the rhizomes are for me to eat and the ones that stay in the ground are so that I have some more next year. Many blessings!
Basagran and Ortho Nutsedge killer always works for me. Both takes 2-3 applications. Don’t be surprised if next year you till or work the garden, here they come! There is one left from this year. I better get after it.
The absolute best way to get rid of this and crab grass is a grass sickle. If you apply it into the ground where the roots are this tool will easily eradicate them in the area. I use it in my garden. I will now start using it in my front yard and then apply seeds.
Are you still around? We have Crabgrass, Goose-grass nutsedge and some flat grass that has ridges and is slightly yellow green. Will Prodiamine pre emergent granuals be effective if applied before the soil reaches 55 degrees F?
Alright! pull up this grass up and it comes right back. Spray roundup, it comes right back. Pull my hair out, so far it comes back. Tyvm, been looking for a way to get rid of it for a garden plot.
There were two species, one that grows just on the thin layer on earth while the other is a very deep rooted one so, I have a problem in getting rid of this nutsedge in my farm the deep rooted one it keeps on increasing its numbers every year, l still wonder how l should get rid of them, l am from lndia and l don't know if l can find this herbicide here.
I had a plastic bag of mulch laying on top of the soil. The plant perforated the plastic bag and started growing into the bag!! Makes me think news paper is not going to be so helpful. 1) Would chopping up the clay/soil and with that, the tubers as well, then having it exposed to the sun help? 2) Because this scourge is in my rose bed, can I use the products you mentioned?
I don't really understand what the problem is. I have allowed nutsedge to take over my lawn. Now I have a lush green lawn. It chokes out the puncturevines and because of that I love it.
Nutsedge we have in Houston Tx, landscape fabric won't even slow it down ... neither will solid plastic sheeting. It will grow right through it. I haven't tried thick newspaper. I did try suspended black plastic sheeting about a foot off the ground above the vegetable bed infested with nutsedge, left in place more than a year and I kept the bed very dark and dry ... now I removed the plastic and still the nutsedge is coming back. This has to be one of the worst weeds in the world.
I'm in central Texas and have come to understand that all the info on weeds, gardening and getting rid of bugs don't necessarily apply to Texas. Don't know if it's our climate or what, but OMG, it's hard to get rid of this horrible weed... only thing worse is the bugs here!
houstonsrb I’m in Houston too and even when I spray it with glyphosate and it dies but it grow right back. It’s nasty stuff in Houston for sure. I just put in st Augustine sod in my lawn so I’m hesitant to start spraying it with a bunch of stuff. But I also fear these weeds will take over my lawn.
We have been picking these out of our grass and flower beds. I go out and pick a bunch and they grow back. We have a gentleman that came to spread some weed killer which isn’t harmful to our dogs and I asked him why we still have these weeds. He told me the name and here I am investigating. Now I know I need to pull those pesky tubers. Thanks for explaining this so well and showing the different types of ways it grows. We get lots in the beds where we have mulch.
No, it isn't. But Sedgehammer was introduced to replace it. Sedgehammer is reportedly the most popular nutsedge killer. - Also, if you have cool season grass (fescue, Kentucky bluegrass, etc), you can use Tenacity to kill nutsedge.
I have Nutgrass I think. It has hair like roots shooting out to a nut that is about 4 inches below the ground and then makes another plant. What can I do.. I know from your video that it isn't Nutsedge. It's all in my flower bed. HELP

Did not know about the tubers I was leaving behind when hand pulling.
Thank you good job !
Very informative video!
Thanks 😎😎😎😎👶👶👶👶
Great Info. Thanks.
So this is the stuff that makes up 80% of my lawn. FML
Oh man! Good luck!
I wish it was only 80% of mine! think im closer to 99%

Did you use the Ortho Nutsedge spray you use with hose or the one you spray on to each nutsedge? Just concerned about killing the surrounding grass.

Is chufa grass different? Iv'e heard they make a drink out of chufa nuts.
Hello, please, what medicine can I use to destroy this grass?
I don't really understand what the problem is. I have allowed nutsedge to take over my lawn. Now I have a lush green lawn. It chokes out the puncturevines and because of that I love it.
I can’t believe I potted them and grew them till the made flower
one man’s weed is another man’s food
Right, I'm trying to figure out how to harvest it and come across this.

Use Sedge Ender at max rate for your type of grass.
good vid tyvm

Don't pull when you pull it and make it spread even more.
Apparently the little tubers, or "nuts," are edible and quite tasty.
I used Image and it did nothing much for my outbreak.
Sandy Vee I’ve heard ‘Sage-hammer’ product is best for yellow.
Is the Manage product still available????

Long fingernails on men is freakin' scary. Find some clippers so people will concentrate on what you are saying.
Maybe he's a guitar player...
If you work in the yard a lot, longer fingernails are useful, both in protecting the fingers and facilitating handling soils and debris, as you plant and as you cultivate.
Nasty long fingernails. Gross.
Thanks
