If you're a phone app kind of person, my swears Picture This works to identify plants. She said it works by leaf or bloom. There's a free version that lets you identify a few plants a day then the paid version allows more. Hope this helps.
Might be a match. Pics of that have green stalks, and mine are reddish. There is one image I've found that shows it with a red stalk, the Virginia Copperleaf, that may be a match. But that sounds like a cool app. I'll check it out. Thanks.
Dave, I pick those early every year and they seem to go away and stay away until the next spring. My neighbor doesn't pick and he seems to have them still sprouting up where my yard is currently and has been free of them for several weeks. Eventually, his chemicals will kick in and get them (or the heat) and they too go away until the next year.
I use Weed Man and they do a great job but picking them in April is usually what helps best for me. I also normally do one application of Image late April or early May on top of the service.
Never had them this bad, Robbie. I did an Image application a week ago. Looks like they're stressing, so hopefully it'll get them. I missed my pre-emergent treatment back in Feb...just plain forgot. Now I'm battling those and the annual bluegrass, but I think the heat will kill the annual bluegrass before the Image does.
