The 7-Step Lawn Fertilization Program

Professional-grade, timed-release granular fertilizer feeds your lawn through the root system in the soil. Each application is carefully timed to Ohio's growing season for maximum results.

Early Spring

Crabgrass pre-emergent protects against annual grasses. Balanced fertilizer brings your lawn out of dormancy with a strong green-up.

Late Spring

Broadleaf weed control begins as temperatures rise and the growing season peaks. Targeted treatments eliminate dandelions, clover, and plantain.

Early Summer

Fertilizers maintain lawn color and density while controlling summer weeds. Grub protection treatments available to prevent beetle larvae damage.

Late Summer

Timed-release fertilizers ensure lawn survival during drought stress periods while continuing to attack persistent summer weeds.

Early Fall

Two-step feeding process builds the root system for winter hardiness while continuing broadleaf weed elimination. This is the most critical treatment window.

Late Fall

Winter feeding stores nutrients deep in the root system for survival through Ohio winters. Maximum snow mold protection applied.

Winter Prep

Final application designed for continued protection through dormancy and early spring green-up — so your lawn wakes up strong.

A Family Business That Treats Your Lawn Like Our Own

Field of Dreams Lawn Care was founded in 1997 with the hope of re-establishing personal service to the lawn care industry. Twenty-nine years later, that mission has not changed.

Allen Oriti still leads every aspect of the operation alongside his family and a team of dedicated technicians. When you call Field of Dreams, you talk to a real person who knows your lawn. When a technician arrives, they know your property's history and what it needs.

That is the difference between a family-owned company with good family values and a national franchise that treats every lawn the same. We believe your lawn deserves special attention — and that is exactly what it gets.

Lawn Care FAQ

Professional lawn care programs in the Cleveland metro area typically range from $40 to $70 per treatment application, depending on lawn size and services included. Field of Dreams offers a complete 7-step fertilization and weed control program, and most homeowners find the cost is much less than they anticipate. We also offer a 10% pre-pay discount for customers who pay for the full annual program upfront. Call us at 216-328-0551 for a free estimate tailored to your property.

National lawn care chains like TruGreen typically charge between $50 and $100 per application for basic fertilization and weed control. Local companies like Field of Dreams often provide the same or better quality at competitive prices — with the added benefit of personalized service, free service calls between treatments, and direct communication with your technician. Unlike national chains, we customize every plan to your specific lawn conditions rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.

Early fall is the ideal time for core aeration in Northeast Ohio. Cool-season grasses like Kentucky bluegrass and fescue recover quickly in the fall growing season, and aeration combined with overseeding produces the best results when daytime temperatures are between 60-75 degrees. Spring aeration is also effective but should be done before crabgrass pre-emergent is applied. Ohio's heavy clay soils make annual aeration especially important for water absorption and root development.

Lawn care focuses on the health and treatment of your turf — fertilization, weed control, pest management, aeration, and soil amendments. Lawn service typically refers to maintenance tasks like mowing, edging, and trimming. Field of Dreams is a lawn care and pest control company. We specialize in making your lawn healthy, green, and weed-free through professional-grade treatments. We do not provide mowing or landscaping services.

Northeast Ohio is a high-risk area for grub damage due to warm, humid summers and active Japanese beetle populations from June through July. Grubs feed on grassroots below the surface, causing brown patches that peel up like carpet. Animals like raccoons and skunks dig up lawns to eat grubs, compounding the damage. Preventative grub control applied in late spring or early summer is far more effective than treating an active infestation. If you have had grub damage before, see beetles swarming in summer, or notice increased animal digging, preventative treatment is strongly recommended.
