larger individial weeds can be cut out of the lawn with a long blade but
can leave quite a large space behind of non grass. Usually one must
fill with compost and reseed.

Try making grass plugs by sowing seed in the base of a pot carrying
tray which can be foc from the GC. Fill with compost to depthof pot
grip and sow the seed.

When ready, just firm into the gap left by the weed - good as new!

dont use compost this will cause a root break if not subsistant with root
