- 31How do I figure out what kind of grass I have?Lawn care and patching bare spots require knowing your specific grass species, but visual similarities between desirable turf and invasive weeds make it difficult to tell them apart. Guessing wrong leads to using the wrong maintenance habits or buying incompatible seed for repairs.
