PERTUMBUHAN BIBIT KAKAO (Theobroma cacao L) DENGAN PEMBERIAN ABU JANJANG KELAPA SAWIT DAN PUPUK NPK PADA MEDIUM GAMBUT
Abstract: This study aimed to
determine the effect of interaction award palm bunch ash and fertilizers NPK,
as well as getting the best treatment dose to the growth of cocoa seedlings in
peat medium. The study conducted an experiment using a completely randomized
design (CRD) factorial with two factors and three replications. The first
factor dose palm bunch ash (0, 28,125, 56,25, 112,5 g/polybeg), while the
second factor is the dose of fertilizer NPK (3,75, 7,5 g/polybeg). The result
showed that the oil palm bunch ash and fertilizer NPK significantly effect the
number of leaves, leaf area, the ratio of the canopy and root dry weight of
cacao seeds, but the effect was not significant on seedling height and stem
diameter. Award bunch ash palm and NPK can enhance the growth of cocoa
seedlings. Oil palm bunch ash 112,5 g/polybag with fertilizer NPK 7,5 g/polybag
is the best dose.
