BEST NUTSEDGE KILLER between certainty, ortho, and image??? 

The tactful and elegant way he sneaks the rubber gloves joke seamlessly is awesome 👏 and the content is so relevant by showing results. It is 2023 and I used sledgehammer two weeks ago, nutsedge plants are brown and dying while Bermuda is bouncing back and trying to fill the bare spots

Solid video--really appreciate the before and after; not too many channels have the patience to show whether things work and just show the application but not the results.

Thank you for your detailed video bro. When these seasonal nuts edge grass pops up just breaks your spirits every time… I have the patience to get a stool out and pluck them one by one, but they tend to break off from the top, leaving the roots still in the ground. I did spray image the other day hoping it helps. Now watching your video, I’m going to a local store to pick up a bottle of ortho, in my opinion seems to be the winner with quicker results

I really appreciate the time you put into this and other video man. Greatly appreciated! 👍👍👍

I use ortho nutsedge killer every season to handle kylinga, nutsedge and spurge in my hybrid Bermuda. I love the stuff!

Inspired by this video, I sprayed my backyard, which has several small areas of nutsedge, with the Ortho product two days ago. This morning the leaves are turning yellow so they seem to be on their way out. And this is even though it rained 1/8” late yesterday. I was afraid the rain would wash the Ortho off the leaves. But, regardless, I’m impressed so far.

Great time lapse approach bud excellent and the ad-lib was funny 😆

Awesome video, thank you. I have a lot of nutsedge this year. This video really helps.

Thank you for actually showing the results. Sounds weird, but many times folks will show the application, say there is another video with results. Full of great info!

Great video. Home Depot had Image. I bought image. My lawn just has a small area with heavy nutsedge occupation. So hand spraying will do me fine. Thank you!

Great video as all of yours are;). Keep up the great work as I can Imagine just how long it takes to out these video together, especially on top of work and family time. Cheers pal

Iv'e tried Sedgehammer and it works well, hard to find local, will try Ortho. Thank you sir! very informative! Orlando, fl.

Dang dude. The effort and thoroughness put into this one is top notch. Super detailed, good info! Call me crazy, as I know everyone says not to pick it out by hand, but that's my solution! May come back to bite me in the end, but for this season, pretty much nutsedge free other than the little I've pulled. In the past, I've seen good results with the Spectracide Weed Stop for Lawns plus Crabgrass Killer hose end, the orange one. Surprisingly good for 5 bucks. Used to use Bayer, now Bio-Advanced, but those didn't have the active ingredient for nutsedge. Again, well done on this one!

Dismiss is also a beast when it comes to nutsedge control. It also has pre-emergent attributes. Great video with results 👍🏼👍🏼

2 Thumbs up for the Ortho product. I have used it, and it works well. Can't beat the convenience of it either.

This is so needed. Straight to the points and saved me hours of researching. Thanks

Even before watching the video I started singing, "🎶 Let's go! Let's go! Let's go oh AH! 🎶" What's is wrong with me? 😄 Seriously though, great content! I look forward to new Lawn Tool videos! And I especially appreciate this kind of thorough comparison of nutsedge killers including the results. Very helpful! Thank you!

I bought a big bottle of the Spectrum weed with yellow nutsedge killer. I just walk around and spot spray it and it works great.

As always. Great video

Great info bro! Definitely have some spots that need treatment. Good to know all these work.

Nice scientific experiment and presentation

Beautiful backyard!!

Surprised you didn’t compare the Sedgehammer as well, but good info. Thx!

great video. and fantastic yard.

Great comparison!

Great Vid. Thanks!!

Certainty will take a week before you see any effect. Be patient. Also for our area there is another called Dismiss South. It works well too and doesn't take but about 2 days to see it working.

Sedges is that stuff I don't like, great vid man!

Tha is for the information buddy 👍

The slow acting products like sedge hammer take a while to cause noticeable damage but the slowness give the active ingredient time to work through the system into the roots and get to the actual nut so there is an actual chance the nutsedge won't just come right back like it does with the fast acting products the just burn off the top and have no time to get into the system. Sledgehammer has a real chance that plant doesn't return. The more properly the product is applied the better the chance it is fully into the plants system. Not mowing before or after can make the difference of half the nutlets death to 95% Nutlet death. 0r half of a season vs a full season or 2 full seasons to have zero nutsedge coming back.

Dear,Love from Bangladesh!!

Three different herbicides that work differently too. The active ingredient in Ortho is sulfentrazone, which gives a faster burndown but may require a second application for a complete kill. Also, sulfentrazone has temperature restrictions, so mind the label and dont even think of using a surfactant with this stuff if you are using a concentrate that isnt a hose end application. The Image is a slower kill, but I have also found that it can damage surrounding turf if used in high temperatures or on even slightly drought stressed turf. Certainty (sulfosulfuron) like all sulfonylurea herbicides (Celsius, Sedgehammer, etc.) take longer to work, but are typically highly effective without having temperature restrictions, and even work faster in hotter temps. Always check your label and respect the application rates. Also, the active ingredients in the three products you tested will kill more than just nutsedge. All three will kill poa to varying degrees, and sulfentrazone especially makes a great kicker for a 3-way herbicide to increase effectiveness on broadleaf weeds.

Thanks for the comparison 👵👍

How were each applications on the grass? I bought the Orthos and used it on areas of my nutsedge growth but it harmed my blue grass as well.

Sedge hammer works if you apply it a few times. Just be patient. After a year of a few applications 1-2 months apart there is no more nutsedge in my Bermuda lawn. You also have to be careful if you have lawn service as might bring the nutsedge from other yards.

Question.... since your yard was about 5000 ssquare feet. And the bottle covers 5000 sq ft. Was the your bottle empty at the end of application? Because my front yard is the same footage and after an even spray I still had half the bottle left.. thanks

Awesome job man! I’ve used Certainty a few times and you hit it on the head.. takes 2-3 weeks to get the results. But it is good stuff. Celsius is the same way. 👍🏼

Thanks for this great video. I treated part of my backyard with the Image hose-end nutsedge sprayer and the Bermuda grass got pretty brown. I'm hoping it comes back. I have more in the front yard and will try Ortho, based on your results. It doesn't look like any of the products yellowed your grass. Was it Bermuda?

How did you leave out "Sedgehammer"? That stuff works great.

Sedgehammer is the best for nutsedge in my experience. I get it on Amazon. Trying image this year just to see how it works.

Awesome video thanks you !

Mystery weed could be torpedo grass, another sedge. It has a rhizome like growth habit and tends to come out in bunches. The base of the leaves has a reddish tint and it makes seed clusters similar to nutsedge.

Just curious, where are you located? Your lawn is awesome.

Was that the Monaco Bermuda? 😳. Remind me what state you’re in... grass is looking level, tight, and nice! Looking forward to seeding mine next March - April.

What about using these products in flowerbeds where Nutsedge has taken over?

Solid as always my dude! I have always had great success with Image. I just wish the results didn't take so long

Supprised sedgehammer didnt make the cut. Works great, but slow. Great to see other options though !

Can you use sedgehammer on Bermuda seedlings? Most of lawn is 1 inch thick but nutsedge is taking over.

A true sedge feels like a three sided straw when rolled between your fingers. Pull it out of the ground, roll between fingers near the previous above ground level.

The Image can be had in a hose-end sprayer, too.

It's not that hard to get nutsedge to turn yellow, but it's really, really hard to keep it from coming back.

I pulled nutsedge earlier this summer every time i saw it pop up and it never got really bad. Guess I got lucky

Hey brother. Need your help. Do any of these products stain? i want to spray it in between limestone pavers where the crap is growing everywhere all of a sudden. =(. Do they come out clear colored?

I’ve had good results with the Ortho product

Thought you were going to pull the one at the beginning, peeps would lose their mind! 😆 Also, results included always a plus!

Nice job, friend! Can I borrow your leftovers? haha. I'm about to make a sedge video as well. It's going crazy in the gardens.

Researching this annoying new weed in my yard, and found you. Your grass is AMAZING, how can I keep mine that short? What grass is that? Beautiful!

The ortho appears to have scorched my zoysia a bit too

I find with nutsedge you have to spray close to the root to kill it off

Great video. Thank you. How sensitive was your lawn to the herbicides? Can I safely spray Bermuda or St. Augustine?

I’ve had a lot of luck with the ortho. Super fast acting!

What kind of herbicide should be used to kill the weed?

Will this work around roses?

Dear,what is the generic name of the herbicide to kill nutsedge????

So 8,000sqft at the 1.25 rate is 4 large scoops?

You know my thoughts on herbicide, but that doesn’t mean I don’t know a quality dissertation on the available product when I see one....nicely done as always my friend.

You know they are going to work. The question is will it come back?? It has always come back for the years I have been using Sedgehammer and I have to treat multiple times every summer. Can you test that?

what model Toro, is that?

Ortho nutsedge killer also kills Goosegrass but it’s not listen on the label

How old is your sod at this point ? I have 2 month old Zorra Zoysai and am a bit worried the Orthos is going to kill it.

Dude, need the turf hat...where do I get it!

"Picture this" app on your phone is really handy for this. Uses camera to identify all vegetation

How does this stuff affect pets? I’d rather not have to dig this weed up but would do that rather than hurt my dogs.

Hey fellas! Been loving these videos. Do you guys have a contact email for fan mail or business inquiries?

But where did you get that hat…?!

Do they go all the way down to the roots and kill the attached nutlings?

First Aussie 😁

What kind of grass do you have? How low do you cut it? What kind of mower is that? How often do you water lawn?

Mystery weed could be Star of Bethlehem. Looks similar to wild onions and wild garlic.

Did ortho kill your grass?

How soon can you mow after spraying with Image

the dancing would kill nutsedge.

Is there a reason to not use sedge hammer?

What product should I buy to kill spurge?

Surprised u blanket sprayed image,contains sulfentrazone which often discolors the non-target grass

You should just "Dismiss" this video!😂😂😜😜

Can you use any of these just before seeding?

Is that other stuff dalis grass? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Nice hat! Lol

That's onion green.

Nutsedge is the scourge of my lawn. Ortho seemed to do the trick, but it keeps raising its ugly head following year, so you gotta stay on it. After nuclear war, nutsedge & roaches will rule.

Question: Is there anyway that you could possibly make the video loooooooooooooooonger?

If you mow first then test, all three products work faster, better, and smarter. The above ground stems are the problem in this video. Mow and then spray. You are trying to kill the rhizomes, down in the soil. Not the vegetation above ground. You are welcome.

Nice video man.... nutsedge sucks!

Second

first

Your volume is low use 🎤 mic

Nutsedge sucks.

Before I watch this video, let me just say this, nutsedge is unkillable.

SedgeHammer. Done.
