We kept feeding it compost and improving the soil with aeration, reseeding with more appropriate grass, etc. It recovered and became a healthy lawn that barely even needed to be watered. Of course, since then we have eliminated much of the lawn with a more diverse garden.
How did you get rid of the weeds?
