Default Grass seed

How is it produced. I mean, my lawn grows, I mow it. So how is seed
produced?

Just like wheat or oats, also grasses.
The grass is grown until it flowers and sets seed, then when the seed is
ripe the grass is harvested and threshed to separate the stems from the
seeds.

I can't believe you've never seen grasses set seed!
