Sod Lawn - Seed Heads????

I live in the Pacific Northwest and have had a commercially grown sod lawn installed for about 3 years now...The sod mixture was 60% Perennial Ryegrass / 20% Hard Fescue / 20% Kentucy Bluegrass. Last year I noticed seedheads starting to appear a coulple of days after cutting in early May... This year they appeared earlier and in larger amounts... Some seedhead areas sre large enough to detract from the lawn.. I have been told by neighbors that they will go away as soon as the lawn starts its' summer growth but I don't know... The lawn is fertilized on Scott's lawn care schedule, and water is not a problem. I have attached a picture of what the spots look like... an anyone enlighten me on what is going on?
