Triv identification

[spectrum1c]

I suspect I have poa triv in my lawn in multiple patches. I over seeded with KBG a couple of years ago and am now concerned it may have been contaminated as I have multiple patches throughout my lawn of varying sizes. It pulls up really easy with a fluffy root system.








I'm pretty convinced it's poa trivialis but am hoping someone will tell me it could be something else

Yep - Poa Triv unfortunately

Thanks so much for the reply. Unfortunately it's in small patches throughout my lawn. Guess I'll have to go and roundup all the patches I can find and reseed next year. I have a feeling this is going to be a multi-year project of finding more patches presenting themselves

I’m facing exactly the same situation. 1 year old KBG lawn, same looking invasive grass in certain areas, lighter color, shallow roots and pulls up easily. I plan on hitting it with tenacity to see if it lights up. This might also slow it down a bit while I work out what to do next. Do you have a plan yet?
