When using a mix of vinegar and soap, some say you can plant a few days after the vinegar dries. 

The most effective way to eliminate quack grass without killing the grass nearby is to overseed the area, keep the seed wet until it grows, mow often, and regularly fertilize the area to promote healthy grass that can choke out the invasive weed.
