Monkey Grass

I have weeds growing in my monkey grass. Can I use a weed and feed to get rid of the weeds and not kill the monkey grass? What brand of weed and feed do I use?

Your best bet would be to hand pull as much as you can and then add mulch to keep weed growth to a minimum. However, you could also try sprinkling corn meal in the area, which has a chemical in it that acts as a pre-emergent on plant seeds preventing them from germinating. Sprinkling corn meal will not harm plants but will keep weeds from growing. Another option (though not one I enjoy recommending) is the use of conventional weed killers.
