PENGARUH LAMA PERENDAMAN BIJI SENGON (Paraserianthes falcataria) MENGGUNAKAN AIR DAUN SIRIH (Piper betle Linn.) TERHADAP KUALITAS BENIH
Abstract: Paraserianthes
falcataria are fast growing trees in the tropical and has many benefits
economically. In order to avoid seeds of Paraserianthes falcataria not decrease
the quality of seeds during storage. Seed treatment is necessary to keep the
seeds able to survive until the time of planting by using Piper betle Linn.
leaf as an antiseptic and disinfectant. The purpose of this study to determine
the effect of submursion seeds in water Piper betle Linn. leaf on the quality
of seed germination and to know the optimum time to submursion seeds in water Piper betle Linn. leaf to maintain the
quality of seeds Paraserianthes falcataria. This research was conducted by
using completely randomized design (CRD), which consists of 4 treatments and 4
replications. Treatment consists of: P10 = Submursion seeds Paraserianthes falcataria
use Piper betle Linn. leaf water for 10 minutes; P20 = Submursion seeds
Paraserianthes falcataria use Piper betle Linn. leaf water for 20 minutes; P30
= Submursion seeds Paraserianthes falcataria use Piper betle Linn. leaf water
for 30 minutes; P40 = Submursion seeds Paraserianthes falcataria use Piper
betle Linn. leaf water for 40 minutes. Research has shown that submursion seeds
with water Piper betle Linn. leaf is able to improve the quality of seeds
Paraserianthes falcataria during storage and the optimal time of submursion
seeds for 30 minutes is the best treatment on seed germination percentage
(62%), speed seed germinated (3.05 days), and increase seedling height (6.44
cm).
