Possible disease or just stalks dying off?

New lawn from seed August 2023. KBG.

Closed off last year super dark and started this year the same. Its been pretty dull and hazy lately which I'm assuming is from seed stalks. I sharpen my mower blade atleast everywhere week.

But I've been noticing some yellowing the past few days. Mostly on the blades coming off the stalks. Is this normal, or am I dealing with disease?

regarding your keep feeding advice;

I've been feeding half lb of urea, 30ml of chelated iron, a small amount of humic and sea kelp for just under 1500 sq.' every 3 weeks. I only apply when it's suppose to rain the next day. I've only irragted once this year for 5mins when it didn't rain after a foliar app.

I did put a very light app of chicken manure down, which I feel would be negligible.

I've been thinking I should cool it on the urea, buts it's a pretty small amount.

Any thoughts?
