Default Organic lawn care and weeds

Your doing a good thing: just remember it takes time. The fuller and thicker
the grass is the fewer weeds will show up in the future. Nothing really
organic is as fast as chemicals. The best thing for you to do is check with
your local ag extension office, they will be most familiar with your local
problems and pests. They might be able to recommend a good slow release
fertilizer and safe pre emergent weed prevented.

I'm trying organic gardening and lawncare for the first time.
I'm mowing high, letting the clippings fly, watering infrequently
but deeply, and doing everything else that organic lawn care
specialists recommend, but my lawn is still covered with weeds.
Is there anything I can do short of dousing it with herbicide?
