PERTUMBUHAN SEMAI NYATOH (Palaquium sp.) PADA BERBAGAI PERBANDINGAN MEDIA DAN KONSENTRASI PUPUK ORGANIK CAIR DI PERSEMAIAN
Abstract: The aims of this
research was to determine the effects of some growing medium and concentration
of organic liquid fertilizer on the growth of Palaquium sp seedlings. The research
was conducted from April to July 2013, at the Permanent Nursery, Tadulako
University, Palu Central Sulawesi. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized
Complete Design (RCD) with factorial pattern. First, growing medium consist of
four treatments; soils/control (P0), Soils+Sand+Compos 1:1:1 (P1),
Soils+Sand+Compos 2:1:1 (P2), Soils+Sand+Compos 3:1:1 (P3). Second,
concentration of organic liquid fertilizer; 0 ppm/kontrol (C0), 1,0 ppm (C1),
1,5 ppm (C2) and 2,0 ppm (C3). Observation Parameters consist of seedling
height increment, stem diameter increment, and increment of leaf number per
plant. The results of the study showed that there were significant differences
between the treatments in all the parameters assessed. The highest seedling
height increment (16,4 cm) was achieved by combination treatment between P2C2.
The highest stem diameter increment (0,32 mm) was also achieved by combination
treatment between P0C1. Hence, for the single effect of the treatments, the
highest leaf number increment was achieved by Soils+Sand+Compos 2:1:1 treatment
(P2) and concentration of organic liquid fertilizer 1,5 ppm (C2) with value
6,05 and 6,15 pieces, respectively.
Keywords: Growing medium,
