Hi all,

 

Do you know why Kentucky bluegrass looks like its already split open? 
Do these split seeds have any nutrition left?
 

Pic attached. Most of my bluegrass looks like those circled in black. It's weird because I'm used to nyger seed, which is pretty obvious when the workers have finished with it.

 

Thanks,

Jason

You could try winnowing them with a fan. The lighter chaff will blow away, leaving the nutritious grain behind.
