Please Tell Me This Is Grass

11 years ago

In a fit of frustration I seeded my backyard 2 weeks ago (it's almost all weeds and bare spots). Now I'm seeing these little sprouts appearing almost everywhere. I'm really hoping these are grass sprouts. Can you ID this? I used a Scott's mixture of Fescue, KBG, and Rye. I'm in the Toronto area, so I wasn't sure it was hot enough yet for the grass to sprout (though it's been 68F here all week). Thanks for your help.

You know the answer, you just don't want to believe it. That is not grass. Grass looks like a needle when it gerrminates and starts to grow.
