Glyphosate will only control nutsedge just after plant goes to seed when the
plant draws the herbicide into the nutlets...The most effective herbicide
that works during the growing season with a large number of vegetable crops
is Metolachlor and a lot of stale seed bed maintenance. I mostly eradicated
nutsedge but it took 15+ years to do it. Nature always throws you a curve
ball in my case its become morning glory...Bob.

I haven't had much luck with glyphosate on nutsedge. It seem to relish
going through plastic. I've seen it go through tomato fruit!

I believe Bob mentioned Sandea for nutsedge several years ago. It
works WONDERS!

My most troublesome weed now is morning glory/ bindweed.
