Low productivity of sugarcane crop effects directly to sugar production. The low sugar production makes price principal sales become high. As a result, farmers income becomes low. One of causing low productivity is the variety of sugarcane crop which is planted has not good quality. One of efforts to increase sugarcane productivity is by producing superior sugarcane variety by doing crossing. This research cooperates with PG Gempol krep produced some sugarcane clones including SB1, SB2, SB3, SB4 and P3. The objective of this research is examining growth response of some sugarcane clones on soil acidity levels sourced from budchips seeds. This research used random complete group design which consist of two factorials and repeated three times. The first factor is sugarcane clones consist of SB1, SB2, SB3, SB4, P3 and BL as the control. The second factor is soil acidity levels consist of soil with pH 4.5, pH 7 and pH 8.2. The growth indicators of plant which observed include plant height, number of leaves, and number of tiller. The result showed that there is significant interaction of treatment sugarcane clones sourced from budchips seeds on variables number of tillers. The treatment of soil acidity levels showed significant interaction on the growth of sugarcane clones sourced from budchips seeds. There is no significant interaction between treatment sugarcane clones and soil acidity levels on sugarcane growth which planted from budchips seeds.
