PENGARUH PEMBERIAN PUPUK ORGANIK CAIR TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN DAN HASIL TIGA VARIETAS TANAMAN MENTIMUN: PENGARUH PEMBERIAN PUPUK ORGANIK CAIR TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN DAN HASIL TIGA VARIETAS TANAMAN MENTIMUN

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui adanya interaksi pemberian pupuk organik cair dan tiga varientas yang tepat serta pengaruh faktor mandiri untuk pertumbuhan mentimun.  Dengan menggunakan Rancangan Acak Kelompok (RAK) pola faktorial 3x3 dengan 3 ulangan, ada 2 faktor yang diteliti yaitu pemberian pupuk organik cair yang terdiri dari tiga taraf, yaitu: P1: 1cc /l air, P2: 2cc/l air P3: 3cc/l air, varietas mentimun, terdiri dari tiga varietas, yaitu: V1: Varietas Hijau Roket, V2: Varietas Hercules, dan V3: Verietas Harmoni.  Variabel yang diamati adalah panjang tanaman umur 10, 20 dan 30 hst, jumlah cabang umur 20 dan 30 hst, jumlah buah per tanaman, panjang buah per tanaman, dan berat buah per tanaman.             Hasil penelitian menunjukkan tidak terdapat interaksi yang nyata antara pemberian pupuk organik cair dengan tiga varietas mentimun terhadap panjang tanaman umur 10, 20, dan 30 hst, jumlah cabang umur 20 dan 30 hst, jumlah buah, panjang buah, dan berat buah. Pemberian pupuk organik cair berpengaruh tidak nyata terhadap panjang tanaman umur 10, 20, dan 30 hst, jumlah cabang umur 20 dan 30 hst, jumlah buah, panjang buah, dan berat buah mentimun. Tiga varietas mentimun berpengaruh sangat nyata terhadap panjang tanaman umur 10 hst, jumlah cabang umur 20 hst, panjang buah dan berat buah, berpengaruh nyata terhadap panjang tanaman umur 20 hst dan jumlah cabang umur 30 hst, namun berpengaruh tidak nyata terhadap panjang tanaman umur 30 hst dan jumlah buah mentimun.  Varietas yang menunjukkan pertumbuhan dan hasil yang lebih baik dijumpai pada perlakuan V2 (Hercules).This research aims to determine the interaction between applying liquid organic fertilizer and three appropriate varieties as well as the influence of independent factors on cucumber growth. By using a Randomized Block Design (RAK) with a 3x3 factorial pattern with 3 replications, there were 2 factors studied, namely the provision of liquid organic fertilizer consisting of three levels, namely: P1: 1cc/l water, P2: 2cc/l water P3: 3cc/ l water, cucumber variety, consisting of three varieties, namely: V1: Rocket Green Variety, V2: Hercules Variety, and V3: Harmony Variety. The variables observed were plant length at 10, 20 and 30 days after planting, number of branches at 20 and 30 days after planting, number of fruits per plant, fruit length per plant, and fruit weight per plant.             The results of the research showed that there was no real interaction between the application of liquid organic fertilizer and three cucumber varieties on plant length at 10, 20 and 30 days after planting, number of branches at 20 and 30 days after planting, number of fruit, fruit length and fruit weight. The application of liquid organic fertilizer had no significant effect on plant length at 10, 20 and 30 days after planting, number of branches at 20 and 30 days after planting, number of fruits, fruit length and weight of cucumber fruit. The three cucumber varieties had a very significant effect on plant length at 10 days after planting, number of branches at 20 days after planting, fruit length and fruit weight, had a significant effect on plant length at 20 days after planting and number of branches at 30 days after planting, but had no significant effect on plant length at 30 days after planting. and the number of cucumbers. Varieties that showed better growth and yield were found in the V2 (Hercules) treatment
