  • The source grass block needs a direct light of level 9 or brighter on top of it.
  • The dirt needs to have some light on it and the light level doesn't matter. So if there is a semi-transparent on top of the dirt block, the grass can still spread to it as long as the above surface can contact the light.
  • The block directly above the dirt block can't be water, lava, or a waterlogged variant block.  Ice and slime blocks don't prevent grass from spreading.

Grass doesn't need direct contact to other blocks to spread. Grass spread at random intervals to a random block in the range. The spread is not affected by gaps or other in-between blocks. Grass can spread downward and actually spread downward faster than upward.
