Each row is a day, morning on the left. The more solid a block, the more of the forecast runs agree you can mow. Open a day for the hour-by-hour forecast behind it.
Monday 19 October: no hours worth using. No — grass wet, still wet underfoot, rain earlier today.

Growth
How fast it is growing, and when it will need cutting again.
21%Growing slowly
Of the fastest this grass could grow. The turf-industry measure, from today's temperature and day length.
Growing slowly — roughly 0.7mm a day. It will not put on enough to need cutting within the next 10 days.
Held back by both temperature and short days — 10.4 hours of daylight at 12°C.
- Over the next 10 days
- about 6mm of leaf
- Next cut due
- not within the next ten days
This only knows temperature and day length. Feeding, watering, shade and cutting height all move it, so treat it as a rough guide.
Worked out from the PACE Turf growth potential model and day length —how and why.
Seeding
Soil temperature at germination depth, and when the window opens.
Soil temperature in CB1, Cambridge
11.4°C53°F
at 6cm — germination depth
Seeding conditions are open — soil is 11.4°C at 6cm and holding above 9°C.
Holding steady over the next 10 days.
Cross-checks against an independent estimate from air temperature (11.4°C), which agrees to within 0.1°C.
Almost every UK and Irish lawn is a ryegrass and fescue mix, whether it was sown or turfed. We assume that, and use 9°C as the seeding threshold.
Thresholds for every species
The differences are small. Ryegrass is the quickest off the mark; bluegrass is the slowest and wants the warmest soil. Everything else sits between.
| Species | Soil needed | Days to sprout |
|---|---|---|
| Perennial ryegrasslikely yours | 8°C | 5–10 |
| Red / chewings fescuelikely yours | 8–10°C | 10–14 |
| Tall fescue | 10–12°C | 10–14 |
| Browntop bentColonial bentgrass | 10–12°C | 14–21 |
| Smooth-stalked meadow grassKentucky bluegrass | 12–13°C | 14–28 |
Feeding
Why timing decides whether a feed does anything at all.
Coming in the app
Grass takes up nitrogen when it is growing. Feed a lawn that has stopped and most of it washes past the roots — which is why timing beats product choice.
Right now this lawn is not growing fast enough to make much use of a feed.
The app will work out the actual feeding windows for your lawn — along with weed control, scarifying and moss treatment — and tell you when they open without you having to check.
CB1, Cambridge in detail
Soil temperature in CB1, Cambridge is currently 11.4°C at 6cm, and barely moving. That depth matters because it is where grass seed sits and where roots start working, and it lags air temperature by days — which is why a warm afternoon here tells you very little on its own.
Lawns in this area are typically perennial ryegrass with fescue, which is what most lawns round here are sown with. That blend needs the soil to hold above 9°C before seed germinates reliably. Seeding conditions are open — soil is 11.4°C at 6cm and holding above 9°C.
1 of the next 10 days look workable. The other 9 are held back by wet grass or soft ground. The best weekend slot right now is Sunday 4pm–5pm, on the basis that grass damp — wet underfoot, rain falling then.
The next recommended window in CB1 opens at 4pm on Sunday 25 October, because the rain clears by then. Underfoot, the ground reads as firm after 10mm rain over the last week, fine (clay) soil.
Save this lawn and we will email you when the windows open.
