The cultivars of turf quality, colour, leaf width, cover and clipping weight are evaluated during the time of January and December, between the years of 2004 and 2006. According to three years of average values, turf quality scores obtained from Kentucky bluegrass cultivars changes between 7.69 and 7.87, color scores between 6.89 and 7.19, leaf width values between 2.61 and 2.98 mm, turf cover between 91.88 and 95.04 %, clipping weight 312.96 and 361.89 g m^-2.
