Seeding grass - what to do about weeds?

6 years ago

Hi - late this summer I moved some things around in my yard and ended up with a big (roughly 10’ x 4’) patch of bare ground. I want to grow grass there and seeded the ground. The good news is that I am starting to see a pretty good distribution of young, fine blades of grass poking up through the dirt. The bad news is that I am also seeing tiny weeds (very small seedlings with round leaves) starting to grow too amidst the young blades of grass.


What should I do? Let the two grow together and deal with the weeds later? Or try to pull the tiny weeds out now?


I’d appreciate any advice! Thanks!
