| I have this light green grass that is taking over my centipede lawn. I spend hours every year pulling it up but it's impossible to get all of it. It doesn't seem picky about where it grows, semi-wooded areas, lawns, it doesn't matter. It emerges much sooner than crabgrass and has little white seeds.

| Hope someone lets us know as it likes my St. Augustine lawn and as you say it likes to pop up anywhere. |

| I thought that it was crab grass, but I guess not. Why don't you post this over on the Weeds Forum? |

| probably poa annua (annual bluegrass). Even tiny plants will produce seed. |

| Or could it be goosegrass? Check out Randy Lemmon's Gardenline website: http://www.randylemmon.com/lawns/gardenline-crabgrass.html |

| Take a sample of it to your local county extension service office. If they don't know they can send it to the university for ID. |
