DIFFERENCES OF PLANTING MEDIA AND CONCENTRATION OF ONION (Allium ascalonicum L) EXTRACT TOWARDS BODY GUAVA CITRA (Syzygium aquenum Burn)

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of planting media and onion extract concentration on the growth of guava image cuttings using a factorial RAK consisting of 12 treatment combinations, namely: T0B1 = Soil with 17% extract, T0B2 = Soil with 33% extract, T0B3 = Soil with 50% extract, T1B1 = 3 kg Mixed soil 1 kg sand with 17% extract, T1B2 = 3kg Soil mixed 1 kg sand with 33% extract, T1B3 = 3 kg Soil mixed 1 kg sand with 50% extract, T3B1 = 3 kg Soil mixed with fertilizer 1 kg with 17% extract, T3B2 = 3 kg Soil mixed with fertilizer 1 kg with extract 33%, T3B3 = 3 kg Soil mixed with fertilizer 1 kg with extract 50%. Each treatment was repeated 3 times so that there were 36 polybags. The results of this study showed that in observing the number of shoots the best-growing media treatment was T0 at the age of 6 WAP (4.33) and 7 WAP (4.56), the best concentration of onion extract was treatment B1 at 6 WAP (3,50) and 7 WAP (4,67), observing the number of roots with the best treatment B1 at the age of 8 WAP (3.00), observing the number of roots with the best B1 at the age of 8 DAP (3,96). There was no interaction between the growing media and onion extract.
