UJI DAYA KECAMBAH BENIH SENGON (Paraserianthes falcataria (L.) Nielsen) DI GREEN HOUSE
Abstract: This study was aimed
to observe the effect of 1 minute immersion in boiling water, 5 minutes
immersion in boiling water and 24 hours immersion in cold water against sengon
seed germination, the germinating rate and the germinating value. While the
benefits of this research is to provide information in the handling and
germinating sengon seed optimally. The observed and calculated parameters in
this study were numbers of germinating seeds for each treatments, germination
rate of each treatment and the germination value of each treatment. This study
resulted that the percentage of seed germination was best on sengon seed which
soaked in cold water for 24 hours with a percentage of 99.25% and the lowest
was seeds which not treated by 79%. Speed of seed germination was highest on
5 minutes boiling water immersion treatment equal to 9.64 / day and the lowest
found to be in 24 hours cold water immersion equal to 4.70 / day. The highest
value found in the seed germination was 1 minutes boiling water immersion
treatment which average 0.17% / day and the lowest found on the untreated seeds
which average 0, 04% / day.
