The grass seedlings are ~1" tall, growing slowly (as expected) but getting crowded out, mainly from purslane, nutsedge, chickweed and wild violets.

Answer:

Fertilome Over the Top II Grass Killer will harm zoysia grass as it is a grass killer. It will not affect broadleaf weeds such as purslane, chickweed, wild violets, or nutsedge. A better option would be Blindside, which is labeled for those target weeds. You must wait 1 month to apply after seeding.
