I live in Western Washington, where it’s wet and rainy for most of the year. My lawn is mainly weeds and moss, with a bit of grass struggling to survive.
I was planning to spend several days using a Hori-Hori knife to pull the weeds by hand, but does anyone have a better suggestion?

I was reading on this forum and that’s a common suggestion. I really don’t want to use a bunch of chemicals unless absolutely necessary. I was thinking of just tilling the whole yard, mixing it all up, and tossing down some grass seed while pulling the weeds that spring up. I really have no idea what I’m doing though lol. I’m not aiming for perfection.
@Vaughn
I’d recommend getting over any fear of chemicals. You’re made of chemicals, eat and drink them daily. Just be careful with dangerous ones. Herbicides are regulated and safe when used correctly. I suggest glyphosate to kill the weeds, then seed a few days later. If you’re worried about it, learn more about its use in modern agriculture. If it was dangerous, the Midwest would be a wasteland. A little on your lawn shouldn’t concern you.

But… it’s not completely safe, right? Isn’t that why there have been so many lawsuits and huge payouts over Roundup? They claimed it was safe, but many people who used it got cancer.

No. There’s an entire industry of lawsuits driven by shady lawyers and questionable ‘science.’

Just because a jury sides with someone doesn’t mean science backs it up. You can find evidence to support just about anything causing cancer.
