    Dealing with the same stuff in Northern IL

    No. It looks really similar at a quick first glance, but the blades are too wide ands grassy-like. I don’t know what it is, but it definitely isn’t nutsedge.

    Definitely not nutsedge. The color and habit are very much like nutsedge, though. Most sedges are triangular in section, and I don’t know of any that have flat blades/stems.

    Could be an ornamental grass that’s escaped into the lawn.

  4. What does the bag include. What varieties of grass?

  5. I have the same stuff, T-zone killed some off and quinclorac didn’t touch it. Going to try something for nutsedge and see if it does it

    Maybe quackgrass? The “clasping auricles” where the leaf attaches to the stem would be the tell-tale sign.

    Not nutsedge. Nutsedge at it’s base will have a triangular stem. This is some kind of grass, but I don’t recognize it.

    I did the same as you and have the same stuff coming up, I’m in Seattle. I hate seeing it mixed it with my baby grass. I assumed it was a sedge also, as I have had some in another area

    Looks like quack grass to me.

    Have you noticed any ducks in your lawn, by chance?

    Did you use straw when you seeded? Kinda looks like wheat.

    I think it maybe, what I suggest is sedgehammer or something similar. You don’t want it to spread and take hold. Do not pull them

    I pretty much made poa triv extinct in my lawn…and now my battle is with quack grass. I hate quack grass. Looks similar to it.
