Spring has arrived, bringing with it warmer, sunnier days. However, some areas are still experiencing chilly evenings with temperatures dropping to as low as 2C in some areas overnight this week.

春天到了，带来了温暖，更阳光的日子。但是，某些地区仍在经历寒冷的夜晚，本周某些地区温度下降到低至2C。

Lawnsmith's grass expert, Ben Agnew, weighs in on the impact of lower temperatures on grass seed growth and what gardeners can do to provide optimal conditions for their new lawn.

Gardeners urged not to 'panic' as lower temperatures could slow grass seed growth

园丁敦促不要“恐慌”，因为较低的温度可能会减慢草种子的生长

With the spring sunshine finally arriving in the UK, many have taken the opportunity to add some grass seed to their gardens.

随着春天的阳光终于到达英国，许多人借此机会在他们的花园中添加了一些草种子。

However, despite the daytime warmth, temperatures have been dropping in the evenings.

但是，尽管白天温暖，晚上的温度仍在下降。

And while 10C is the minimum temperature needed for grass seed to be able to grow with the optimal temperature being more like 12 - 15C, the chillier nights mean gardeners will see a much slower response from their grass seed.

虽然10c是草种子能够随着最佳温度而更像12-15摄氏度所需的最低温度，但寒冷的夜晚意味着园丁的草种子的响应速度要慢得多。

This is nothing to panic about, patience is key when it comes to growing grass from seed. And these lower temperatures just mean the germination process will be slower.

这没什么可恐慌的，耐心是从种子种植草的关键。这些较低的温度仅意味着发芽过程将较慢。

Despite not seeing results yet, Lawnsmith's expert insists gardeners aren't necessarily doing something wrong.

尽管尚未看到结果，但Lawnsmith的专家坚持认为，园丁不一定会做错事。

花园专家共享1英镑的硬币黑客，以检查草种子的土壤深度

Ben explained: "Anyone starting a new lawn or filling in patches might be feeling frustrated with the lack of progress in their lawns. Especially if they've spent time and energy taking care of seedlings.

本解释说：“任何开始新的草坪或填充补丁的人都可能会对草坪缺乏进展感到沮丧。特别是如果他们花了时间和精力照顾幼苗。

"And thankfully, there is nothing extra that they need to do except keep going with their usual lawn treatment. Keep the seedbed moist, but not pooling water.

“值得庆幸的是，除了继续进行平时的草坪处理外，除了保持湿润而不能保持水合水外，他们没有什么需要做的。

"Make sure seeds are at the correct depth to stay protected from the elements and maintain good seed-to-soil contact.

“确保种子处于正确的深度，以防止元素保护并保持良好的种子与土壤接触。

"I recommend sowing your seeds at a depth of approximately three £1 coins stacked on top of each other. This will provide a comforting environment for the seedlings to germinate and grow.

“我建议播种您的种子，深度约为三英镑的硬币，彼此叠放。这将为幼苗发芽和生长提供一个舒适的环境。

"The worst thing you can do is panic and throw more grass seed down, as this could cause a situation where you lay too much seed and there is competition, leading to poor growth."

“您能做的最糟糕的事情就是惊慌，将更多的草种子倒下，因为这可能会导致您放置太多种子并且竞争的情况导致增长不佳。”

He added: "Grass seeds like ryegrass or fescue often germinate quickly compared to other varieties like Bermuda that can take longer and require higher soil temperatures."

他补充说：“与其他品种（如百慕大）相比，诸如黑麦草或羊茅之类的草种子通常会迅速发芽，这些品种可能需要更长的时间且需要更高的土壤温度。”
