Crab or no crab grass #867816

Asked May 09, 2024, 8:04 PM EDT

Hi. I used a grass seed called “dwarf bonsai”. And I hate it. I cannot tell if it’s crab grass or not. I sprinkled crab grass emergence preventer and sprayed it with Sedge killer. Some patches turned yellow. But it’s not clear what is what. I am pulling some stuff that looks like crab grass. Is it? Impossible to upload a file!! Even if I make it small and cut it.

The grass in the photo looks like tall fescue, which is the intended turfgrass in the Bonsai Dwarf blend.
