This is a good time to put on a weed n feed. It might strengthen the good
grass enough to crowd out the weeds.

If the homeowner is restricted from using herbicides because of a
bird/wildlife sanctuary and lake nearby, then weed'n feed formulations are
the very LAST products he should consider. First, they are an extremely
inefficient and expensive means of delivering herbicide to the target plants
and because of their method of delivery, they are extremely prone to
leaching and run off, thereby contaminating groundwater, streams and other
natural waterways. Weed'n feeds are HUGE polluters and are even restricted
in certain areas where they have been overused to the point of destruction
and disruption of natural habitats.

I agree that developing a healthy lawn is the best defense against weeds,
but using these products is NOT the way to go about it. Warren has provided
the best advice by far.
