Can someone identify this grass please
 

Hi,

I've found some patches of grass that grow really fast and I wonder if
someone could identify it for me please.

How to get rid of it would be nice to know too.

Does it look like this when left to just grow?

If so, then it's dallisgrass which I'm trying to get rid of. No solution for
this as I'm still struggling with it.

It looks like a rough undesirable grass, possibly poa trivialis, rough
stalk bluegrass. The bad news is, with the grass type weed problem,
the usual broadleaf weedkillers are ineffective, because it's a grass,
not a weed. And often there is no available effective herbicide at
all. You may have to use Roundup on it and then re-seed.

It's certainly an undesirable, but the pictures of poa trivialis I've
just seen via Google don't look like mine.

I think the Roundup method is probably the way to go.

Thanks.

I think you've nailed it.

Roundup and re-seed I think.

Thanks.

that's alot of work for something that is just going to eventually come
back. maybe there is a time during tthe year when the desirable grass
is dormant and this is not. if so hit it with roundup then.
