PENGARUH PEMBERIAN PUPUK NPK DAN VOLUME AIR TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN DAN PRODUKSI TANAMAN CABAI (Capsicum annum L)
Abstract: Chili is really
needed to complete comsumption of family needs and industrial fabrics. The
biggest problem low production in the cultivation of chili’s in Riau isthe land
conversion and lack of proper cultivation technique. One way to increase
productionin the cultivation of chili’s withfertilizing and giving water with
right doses, right way and the right timeincreasesproduction of chili
plants.The objective of the research was to determine the bestinteraction of
giving NPK fertilizerand water volumeof growth and production of chili
plants.This research was conducted at Gauze House the Technical Service Unit of
the Faculty Agriculture from Mey to October2014.This research arranged
experimentally using Completely Randomized Design (CRD), which consists of 2
factors.The first factor is the NPK fertilizer consists of 3 levels: NPK
fertilizer dose of0.625 g/plant, NPK fertilizer dose of 1.25 g/plant
and NPK fertilizer dose of 1.875 g/plant. The second factor is the
giving water volume consists of 3 levels: water volume of 0,5 liter/plant,
water volume of 1 liter/plant and water volume of 1,5 liter/plant. From two
factors, then obtained 9 combined treatments. So that acquired 27 units of the
experiment, each experimental unit consisted of 5 and take 3 samples, plant, so
there were 135 samples plant. Observation parameters were plant height,
flowering date, dichotomous height, stem diameter, crown width, fruit length,
fruit diameter, harvest quantity, fruit weight per plant. The research result
showed that the treatment of giving NPK fertilizer to increase where height
plant, flowering date, crown width, harvest quantity and fruit weight per
plant. Giving water volume on increase plantheight, flowering date, stem
diameter, crown width and fruit weight per plant. Giving NPK fertilizer dose 1,25 gr/plant with water volume 1,5
liter is the best treatment interactionof height plant, stem diameter, crown
width, fruit diameter, harvest quantity and fruit weight per plant.
