This weed is one of the most common and troublesome weeds around. It can be hard to identify as it can be mistaken for similar turf grass. However, Poa does have some distinguishing features to identify it. Each blade is shaped like the tip of a canoe and usually a lighter green (making the turf look patchy) and the leaves are softer and weaker compared with other grass varieties. It has a short life span dying off as soon as the weather becomes dry.
For large problem areas, you can dig out the worst patches in March/April and re-seed. Depending on the seed variety of the lawn we can spray using herbicides.
