 1/  THIS TABLE CONTAINS NO STATISTICAL VALUES (LSD VALUES) THEREFORE IT SHOULD ONLY BE USED TO DETERMINE THE GENERAL PERFORMANCE OF AN ENTRY OR
     ENTRIES ACROSS SEVERAL LOCATIONS OR REGIONS.  TO ASSESS STATISTICAL DIFFERENCES AMONG ENTRIES, REFER TO THE MEANS AND LSD VALUES FOUND IN TABLE 1.

 2/  RANKING OF MEAN TURFGRASS QUALITY IS ACHIEVED BY ASSIGNING "1" TO THE HIGHEST MEAN, "2" TO THE SECOND HIGHEST MEAN, ETC. FOR EACH LOCATION.
     FOR EXAMPLE, IF TWO MEANS ARE TIED FOR THE SECOND AND THIRD RANKS, BOTH ARE ASSIGNED "2.5".
