I have been mowing it weekly since April. However the area is still infested with thistle, bramble and nettle pushing up through the new grass.
Any suggestions for getting rid of these pestilential weeds without killing off the grass ?
The lawn is 40 meters x 20 meters.

When you rotovated, your next action should have been to go through the result and remove any roots for the noxious weeds like nettle, bramble etc. You have now a big problem as you will have cut these into small lengths, each of which is able to shoot.
