S

So I responded to Douglas with some questions and some recommendations.
S
3:26Sherri HarrahHOST
Nutsedge, noxious weed, usually an indicator of high salt, compaction, and or moisture.
S
3:35Sherri HarrahHOST
So if you have one of those three things going on and you have nutsedge, we need to address what's happening so what my recommendation to douglas was was to remove everything uh clean it up right now and when i say clean it up i usually don't tell people to pull nutsedge because when you pull nutsedge it makes like five new nuts edges okay it just goes crazy but at this point in the year what we want to do is if it's gotten out of control and you just feel like you can't keep up with it this is what i would do get out and clean it up so pull it clean it up beds clean put a nice three-inch layer of mulch.
S
4:17Sherri HarrahHOST
Now, before, Douglas, before you put that mulch down, you had asked if you should put some compost down, some gardener's magic.
S
4:41Sherri HarrahHOST
So we're gonna clean up, we're gonna put our compost down, we're gonna put our mulch.
S
4:46Sherri HarrahHOST
And then what you do is we're not quite ready to plant your knockout roses and your pittosporum.
S
4:53Sherri HarrahHOST
So what you're gonna do is gonna, I like to get a trigger spray of what's called Nutsedge Killer.
S
4:58Sherri HarrahHOST
Now it is a chemical spray.

S
33:16Skip RichterHOST
But yeah, here's the thing.
S
33:19Skip RichterHOST
Nutsedge has a narrow leaf and it's a slick leaf.
S
33:23Skip RichterHOST
And so when you spray, you need a little bit of some sort of a surfactant to help it stick to the grass blade, the nutsedge blade rather.
S
33:33Skip RichterHOST
And so that may be it.
S
36:57Skip RichterHOST
You bet, Dennis.
S
36:57Skip RichterHOST
You must be watering.

T
