Just genetically engineer a current hardy grass into something that can survive off of C02, little nitrogen, iron, and handle the extreme temperatures. 😀
There could be some thing out there that might strive on Mars environment, but none known on our planet. Practically, all life form on Earth need water to live & water is the problem....water expand & freezes at 0 celsius.

sounds like crab grass

God, I hate that stuff. You can't kill it with chemicals (without killing your grass) and it's harder then heck to pull out. My beautiful St. Augustine gets the crap kicked out if it every summer by crab grass.
It is hard to kill, but can be done.

Take a shovel & scrape off the first 2-4 inch of the affected area then replace it with fresh soil & then spread & pin down landscaping fabric over top, and then spread a thin layer (3-4 inch) of wood chip/bark over top.

All plants need sunlight to survive; therefore cutting out the light will kill it.
