PENGARUH PERBANDINGAN MEDIA TANAM DAN JENIS PUPUK KANDANG TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN BIBIT PORANG (Amorphophallus onchophyllus)

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of the comparison of planting media and the effect of the type of manure on the growth of porang seedlings and to determine the interactions that occur between the comparison of planting media and manure. This study used a factorial randomized block design (RAK) with two factors studied, namely: Comparative treatment of planting media with 3 levels, : M1 = Top soil + Sand + Rice husk (1:1:1), M2 = Top soil + Sand + Rice husk (1:1:2) and M3 = Top soil + Sand + Rice husk (2:1:2). The treatment of type of manure with 3 levels, namely: P1 = cow manure, P2 = goat manure and P3 = chicken manure. The parameters observed were plant height (cm) observed at 40, 50 and 60 DAP, stem diameter (cm) was observed at 40, 50 and 60 DAP, number of leaves (strands) was observed at 60 DAP and plant root length was observed. when the plant was 60 DAP. The results showed that the comparison of planting media had a significant effect on the parameters of height, stem diameter and plant root length. The best results were obtained in the treatment M3=2:1:2. The type of manure treatment had a significant effect on the observation of plant height, stem diameter and root length at 60 DAP. The best observation results were obtained by giving P3 (25gr/polybag chicken coop fertilizer). There is no interaction between the effect of giving several comparisons of planting media and giving the type of manure.
