I applied Evergreen Weed and Feed to the lawn yesterday 8th April. The lawn is one year old, however there are numerous weeds and several bare patches, it is also very damp. Can I sow grass seed to the bare patches now or should I wait and see if the Evergreen improves things?
I have discovered a clover like weed that has spread throughout my lawns. It has a very small yellow bulb like head on it that tangles itself throught out the grass ,not sure what it is or the best way to get rid of it. I put down a weed and feed about 3 weeks ago which to be honest didnt do much. Just wondering how long do i wait before i spray with a weed killer and then fertilise it.

This weed (see attached picture) has grown all over our lawn. It is only our 2nd year in this house but it wasn't there last week. Any ideas as to how to deal with it?
I intended to use grass clippings from my lawn in the compost bin, and also small amounts to mulch shrubs. However, the lawn was treated with Dicophar broadleaved weedkiller, so does this mean I can never use the clippings in those ways? Would there be a period of time after which it would be safe to use them?
The weed in the attached photo is growing like wildfire in my field beside my house on Achill Island. I cannot kill it. Do you have any suggestions as to how to take care of this?
