What Grass Is This? identifies your grass type from a photo, then gives you a care plan tuned to your climate, soil, and season. No more guessing which fertilizer to buy or when to water.
Most lawn care advice treats every lawn the same. But Kentucky Bluegrass in Minnesota has completely different needs than Bermuda in Texas. Generic tips lead to wasted money, dead patches, and frustration.
We built this to fix that. You upload a photo of your lawn, our model identifies the exact grass type, and you get a care plan built for your grass, your climate, and your soil. It tells you what to do each month: when to fertilize, how high to mow, how much to water, and which products to use.
It's lawn care that actually works, because it's built around what's growing in your yard.
Get close, focus on a single patch. Sun is fine, shade is fine. JPG or HEIC, under 10 MB.

A month-by-month schedule built around your grass type, your climate zone, and your soil. Editable any time.
I built What Grass Is This? after years of throwing money at the wrong fertilizer and following advice that didn't apply to my yard. I'm a software engineer by trade, and a lawn obsessive on weekends. This site is a one-person project, run honestly. If something on it is wrong, I want to know.
