The objective of the study is to reach shorter seeds of forest cloves through the application of growth inhibitors, namely paclobutrazol. The study used a randomized block design (RBD) one factor with three replications. The experimental factor was 5 concentrations of paclobutrazol which were 0 ppm (control), 25 ppm, 50 ppm, 75 ppm, 100 ppm. The results revealed that the concentration of paclobutrazol 75-100 ppm produces shorter forest clove seedlings with higher leaf chlorophyll content.
