It probably is chickweed. There is probably no easy answer particularly if you don't want to use chemicals. Dig it up, throw it away, turn over the patches of open lawn, put down some topsoil, lots of grass seed, overlay it with straw and water it. Hopefully, with the right weather, you will get grass to come up and get rooted before the winter weather sets in. If the grass gets a good healthy start it will outgrow your weeds. Good luck. (I don't care what the water conservationists say, my grass died from the drought and I will be out there with you trying to get grass growing, even though we are now well flooded, my grass has major dead areas and crab grass and chick weed and plantains etc are just taking over.)

Reply:If the leaves look like a spade on a playing card that is not chickweed, that is called Buckwheat and is going to be very tough to remove, since the roots go on forever. They have a small white flower.
Reply:I have been fighting chjckweed for 30 yrs. The best way is pull it up or dig it out. Do not let it go to seed. I'm winning the battle. There is an old saying that says, "One year's seeds, seven year's weeds." So don't let it go to seed. I've tried weed killers without much sucess.
Reply:When in doubt use round up it will kill anything.Some weeds have a real bad root system,those sometimes need all areas dug up and replaced with good dirt.I am currently fighting two types of weeds that were killed last year and came back.
Reply:There is grass seed that you can purchse that will help the lawn, while getting rid of crabgrass and other weed like things. Check at your home and garden store, it should list it on the package.
