Pengaruh Nutrisi AB Mix Terhadap Pertumbuhan Tanaman Bayam Merah (Amaranthus tricolor L.) secara Hidroponik

Abstract

This research is aimed to find out the effects of AB mix Nutrition on the Growth of Red Spinach (Amaranthus tricolor L.) in Hydroponics, from June 2019 to August 2019 in the Workshop of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, PGRI University, Palembang. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of administering a dose of AB mix nutrition on the growth of red spinach (Amaranthus tricolor L.). The research method was an experiment in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD), using 5 treatments 4 replications namely P0 (control / no nutrition), P1 (5 ml AB mix nutrition), P2 (10 ml AB mix nutrition), P3 (15 ml AB nutrition mix), P4 (20 ml nutrient AB mix), analyzed by Analysis of Variance Analysis (ANSIRA). The parameters observed were plant height, number of leaves and wet weight. The results showed that the administration of AB mix nutrient dose significantly affected plant height, number of leaves and the wet weight of red spinach (Amaranthus tricolor L.). The best treatment of P3 at a dose of 15 ml with plant height of 24.2 cm, number of leaves 13.25 strands and plant wet weight of 18.825 grams, the lowest yield at P0 treatment with plant height of 5.65 cm, number of leaves of 8.5 strands and plant wet weight of 0.375 gram.
