Lawn advice

[peterwes]

Hi,

Looking for some advice. I had lawn layed around 16 months ago. Use regular feed and mow weekly in spring/summer. Last year lawn has some form of weed on it and this year more has appeared. I have attached a picture of it they come up in clusters around the lawn I have used weed killer multiple times but without any success. Any advice on how to get rid of it or what it actually is would be appreciated.

Cheers

Not super clear, but it looks like meadow grass to me. Keep mowing.

Thanks for the advice. At least now I know what it is.

I had a out brake of several grass weeds. From dallis grass, to barn grass to just about anything that looks like feed grass.
It took 3 different killers to kill the out break back. Plus 14-20 days for any effect .
I used Round Up for lawns , weed B gone and im sorry I forget the name but a broad leaf from Lesco, also a stiff application of pre emergent had really helped.
I went with the heaviest application per instructions using
Lesco 19-0-9 with dimensions.
If your not looking to feed tour lawn a straight pre emergent can be applied

Oh and pull manually as often as you can with as much root as possible and put them in the trash

What kind of lawn grass did you buy?

My missus was like "He's got grass growing in his lawn? He's having a laugh"
In case you didn't get the 'keep mowing' reference,

Know any gardening jokes ?

Someone posting in search of help to create the perfect lawn reminded me of this one. A new world tourist and his wife were visiting Canterbury cathedral, and he was mightily impressed by the beautiful green outside. As he was watching someone dressed in corduroy and pushing a wheel barrow...
