I have an area in my yard where nutsedge has taken over. I sprayed it twice with Image (the premixed bottle hose end sprayer) and nothing??
Any recommendations?

Face towards another part of your yard while drinking beer and it won’t bother you.

How long ago did you spray with image?
It will normally take a little while for it to knock it out.

Sedgehammer or Dismiss. Sedgehammer is systemic, will take longer. Dismiss works in a day or two but actually burns the foliage

Ortho nutsedge killer works good, can get at lowes, is cheap, and easy to apply. It’s mild though.
Certainty and sledgehammer works well too.

Any idea what the mix rate was on the pre-mixed bottle? I'd look at getting the concentrate and push it to the max rate. I have had a lot of success with image.

I've got the nutsedge bad in one of my flower beds. Is Sledgehammer going to hurt my gardenia's?

Put a teaspoon of baking powder in the middle of each cluster

Though I use Sedgehammer now, I’ve used Image for Nutsedge in the premixed spray bottle and it worked fine, but it does take 3-4 weeks to show results - yellowing/browning and death. It is a systemic herbicide and works slowly to kill the plant, in the meantime new nutsedge plants emerge. Sedgehammer works in the same way. Now what I did notice after spraying Image is that the growth rate of the sprayed nutsedge slowed considerably even though it took awhile to kill it.

If you have any friends that farm you can get a chemical called Envoke. That is what I put on my Bermuda grass.

Or Permit. If you happen to know any farmers (say a rice farmer) Permit is the exact same thing as sedgehammer
