I reseeded part of our lawn about 2 or 3 months ago and it's currently suffering a bout of weeds.

Can anyone recommend a weedkiller I can use on it, as all the ones I've found so far say only for use on lawns over 6 months old.

Cheers,
Martin

I couldn't find one myself, so have resorted to digging them out.

The Docs especially are a right bastid to dig out frown

Most weeds go naturally if you cut the grass short enough and regularly.

I don't think there is one for young grass. Either risk it (maybe lessen the dose?), or dig, or leave them. The weeds can't be too established yet.
