Hello GW! Can anyone help out with what type of grass I have? I posted my front yard 2 minutes ago and this is now my front yard. Looking to reseed some areas and need to first figure out what type of I have. Thanks very much!

Sorry for the confusion. This is my front yard and the other pic is my back yard. How do I get rid of the crab grass? I live in Southern California. I will just want to look at this front yard grass. For the back yard grass, my kids will probably run around on it. I get tons of sun and not too much shade. Yes - I'm willing to water and move weekly. Right now my sprinklers go on everyday for 15 minutes and I also hand water the grass once a week and try to give more water to the brown/empty areas. Just attached another pic of my front yard lawn. Can you tell what type of grass it is from this new pic? Thanks for your help!

Take it back. Do so with a self-confident "so sorry you have this problem with your product, but I must return it" attitude. I am so tired of purchasing products and feeling like I'm stuck with it after bringing it home and it doesn't work properly or is non-functional from the start. TAKE IT BACK AMERICA!! That's what I say. Even if you don't get your money back -- tell them that the internet is a powerful tool and you will tell the universe why you wanted to return the item and that you will tell the universe who you purchased the item from and that the rest of the universe should look elsewhere for someone with a more lenient return policy or someone who buys from more credible manufacturers. What difference does it make how soon after purchasing that you had to wash it! I wash almost everything as soon as I get it home! I don't need anymore odd-ball DNA on our clothing and sheets, etc.! I guess you can tell I'm sick and tired of being screwed in the marketplace! Take it back if it doesn't work!!

* The mantle of Mrs. Grundy - a figurative name for an extremely conventional person who worries about being different * The Grand Guignol - a Parisian theater that opened in 1897 * The "qui vive" of expectation - Que vive? Is a question: Who goes there? To be on the alert, suspicious. * Carlyle on the Dutch (who was who and who did what?) - Carlyle was Scottish writer/philosopher in nineteenth century who wrote social/political criticism. Not sure about the Dutch reference. Any ideas? * Cassandra could have looked more gloomily prophetic - Cassandra was the royal daughter at the time of the Trojan War. She rejected ApolloâÂÂs advances and in retaliation, he made it so no one would believe what she said. (Perhaps âÂÂgloomily prophecticâ due to this?) * A veritable colossus of negation - âÂÂcolossusâ was a huge ancient statue on the Greek island of Rhodes, so perhaps this refers to how immovable negativity is when people espouse it strongly * Fox (re: pity?) - not sure about this one. * Bib and tucker (clothing) - refers to oneâÂÂs best clothes; first used in 18th century. âÂÂBibsâ were similar to current day baby bibs, except these were worn by adults over their clothes (mostly women). Made of lace and fitted over the bodice; sometimes called âÂÂpinnersâ or âÂÂmodesty piecesâÂÂ. âÂÂTuckerâ were bibs that were tucked in. (Pinners/Bibs were pinned and tuckers were tucked.) Linked with âÂÂpinaforeâÂÂ, âÂÂpin-a-foreâÂÂ: a pin/bib thatâÂÂs pinned on the front of clothing. (Taken from Patricia Brent, Spinster - Herbert Jenkins.)
