Strawberry becomes one of the popular plants in agro-tourism by combining strawberry plantation with culinary tourism. Increasing growth and yield of strawberry plant can be achieved by applying liquid organic fertilizer (LOF) of vegetable waste and planting media. This research was conducted to study interaction between LOF and planting medium (PM) and to inquire about the best dosage of LOF and planting medium for the growth and yield of strawberry. This research was conducted in the sub-district of Cibiru, Bandung City, West Java. The research design was Randomized Block Design with two factors and three replications. The first factor was vegetable waste of LOF with four treatments level respectively: p0: without LOF application, p1:250 ml, p2: 500 ml, and p3: 750 ml. The second factor was planting media with three treatments level respectively : m0: without husk charcoal, m1: (1:1) soil and husk charcoal, m2: (1:2) soil and husk charcoal. The research finding came up by the existence of interaction in leaf width with the highest number by 835.42 cm 2 in combination of p2m2 treatment.
