PERTUMBUHAN DAN HASIL SELEDRI (Apium grafeolens L.) PADA MEDIA PASIR SETELAH DIBERIKAN GANDASIL D DAN ATONIK

Abstract

Improvement growth and yield of celery in a polybag with sand media needs fertilizer and growth hormones to
stimulate plant growth. The aim of this study was to determine the effect Gandasil D and Atonik on the growth and
yield of celery (Apium grafeolens L.) grown in sand in polybag. The experiment was arranged in Factorial
Randomized Block Design to tested liquid fertilizer Gandasil D concentration (without and with 1.0 g/L, 1.5 g/L
and 2.0 g/L) and growth hormone Atonik concentrations (without and with 1.5 mL/L, and 2.0 mL/L). The results
showed that only liquid fertilizer Gandasil D which showed a significant effect on the growth of  celery.
Application of Gandasil D at a concentration of 2.0 gwas/L  the best concentration to increase plant height,
number of tillers, leaf number and fresh shoot weight.
