Hi all, about a year into being at this house I don’t remember seeing this in my yard when I moved in last year. I dethatched, scarified and over seeded last year with twin city seed BLUE RESILIENCE Tall Fescue & Kentucky Bluegrass Mixture. I used fall weed and feed last year, pre emergence in early spring, fertilizer weed and feed last month.

Your kbg is going to to seed
Tis the season for everybody to be talking about Poa. I got it. You got it. We all got it!
Looks like kbg seeds to me!
Poa Annua or wintergrass
KBG no?
Grass going to seed?
Grass
My tall fescue seeds like this every year from approx15 April thru 15 May. Pull one out all the way and the entire stem should be hard as a wire. Need sharp blades to get a good cut on those without leaving shredded tip that brown over time. Nothing you can do as its an annual natural behavior. Wait it out.
The poa in my yard looks just like that. Sorry, you need to burn down everything now. Or cut lower and prey summer heat kills it.
KBG seed. No worries.
KBG. You can tell by the seed heads alone. KBG has tighter seed formation.
It has gone to seed.
I’ve noticed the same and I overseeded with the same Blue Resilience. What’s your HOC? I’ve been between 2.5” and 3”
Procreation
It’s either kbg going to seed or poa anua right now. Poa Anua will look more like golfball to baseball size spots sprinkled around and potentially a touch lighter in color. Prey it’s not poa anua, but even if it is, it’s better than poa triv!
More lawn
Seeding

Helpful picture. Prolly KBG…
Grass going to seed perfectly normal
Poa. very tough to get rid of
KPG is seeding. On the next cut mulch the seed into the lawn rather than bagging
Idk if this is scientific or not, but I just pull on the grass it’s coming from. If it rips up like a carpet, it’s poa annua. Edit: that doesn’t look like poa to me, I think it’s your grass going to seed. Just keep cutting!
