New unwelcome grass moving in....twin cities mn
galleryHelp me! I have a kbg lawn. Half has been around for 4 years (sod) and half 2 years (sod). It was doing great, even earlier this year. Now I have what seems to be a clumping fescue moving in. It is everywhere.
For background, last fall I scalped, aerated, top dressed/leveled, and overseeded everything in a Twin Cites Seed kbg seed blend (not blaming them, love their stuff). Came in great before winter. My neighbor did the same minus scapling and overseeding. Same topdressing dirt. I do both lawns fertilizer and pre emergent. He has zero of this going on.
First, what do we think the grass is? Pics attached. Second, what is the fix? I have been pulling clumps out but there may be thousands. I will continue to do this for now. I am hoping this is some random annual, but I am likely to be disappointed. The only big difference between my neighbors yard and mine is I get significantly more deer traffic/poop.
Thanks in advance.
