I spot treated last weekend and today cut and bagged my entire yard on the lowest mower setting, the grass should choke out any weeds

I'm not an expert by any means, but from everything I've read this is the exact opposite of what you are supposed to do. Until the weeds are dead you should cut your grass at the highest setting while not bagging your clippings. The higher grass shades the weeds and will overwhelm it. The grass clippings also act as mulch and smothers the weeds. All that said, every source says something different and your way might be the right one.
