Data have been statistically analyzed and examined further with BNJ if significant effect on level 5%. The outcomes indicated that there was interaction between NPK fertilizer and coconut water on cocoa seed height, leaf field and dry weight, simply did not interact on stem circumference, leaf number and root canopy ratio of cocoa seedlings. Giving a dose of NPK fertilizer 4 to 6 g / plant gives a better effect on cocoa seed height, stem circumference, leaf number, leaf area and dry weight of cocoa seedlings. Provision of 50% coconut water concentration gave a better effect on stem circumference, leaf number, leaf area and dry weight of cocoa seedlings. The dosage of NPK 6 g fertilizer and concentration of coconut water 50% showed the best treatment on cocoa seed height, leaf area and dry weight of cocoa seed in the sub soil medium.
