Use a broadleaf killer like Trimec (WeedFreeZone by Fertilome is readily found) or MSM to knock back a lot of the weeds now. A good pre-emergent before Thanksgiving will get you a head start in the spring, then another round or two of WeedFreeZone early in the spring. By then, you should be down to mainly grass and grassy weeds. Come back with some pics then and we can start some pinpoint spot-spraying.
You can get a nice winter yard for this year by overseeding with rye (use a turf rye, NOT Gulf annual rye). Just do it before you put down your pre-emergent.

im going to have to get you pics of the 3-4 different types of grasses in my yard.
BTW the green kyllinga and other weeds all died when i sprayed Sulfentrazone (Dismiss). took a few days to brown but it did. Did my neighbors yard and only got halfway done before it got dark and you can see the line where i stopped.

Sorry to bump an old thread, but I'm finally able to get around to starting this project. I didn't want to start until I was ready to do it.
Couple questions:
Which Rye seeds would you recommend for this winter?
Once those are down, how long should I wait to put down a pre-emergent?
And what should I know about my yard for a year round grass for next year? (Or is rye suitable for my yard year round?)
