Is it mostly sunny in that spot? It may be a strain poa annua which is
an annual grass that dies every summer.


Nice and sunny. It comes back every spring all nice and green, then
croaks. ****es me off. But it doesn't get a chance to go to seed so it
has to be a perennial strain of something.

The **** grass is what goes to seed generally, the annuals. Most desirable
turfgrass is perennial and never goes to seed because you cut it every
week. It never gets tall enough to produce seed... like corn.

If you see grass that's only 2 or 3 inches tall going to seed it's more
than likely an annual grass. It's considered a weed in most parts and
people will pay to try and prevent it. Golf courses hate it.

I'd have to see it to know. Yeah if
it's sunny there you might consider sowing some turf type tall fescue or
some sort of a perennial blend rye/blue/fescue. If it's shade go more
with the fine fescue/rye blend.


I'm definitely saving this post.... Thanks!!!

Glad to help. That's just a stab in the dark but it might be the problem.
It's real common here. We slice seed those areas for people in the spring
and fall.
