The aim of the study is to determine the effect of different hump size on banana seedling growth. The study carries out at the Agriculture Farm in Halu Oleo University. The study arranged in single-factor using randomized block design. The factor examined is the difference in the humps size, consists of (1) size 8cm x 8cm x 8cm, (2) size 10cm x 10cm x 10cm, and (3). Size and 12cm x 12cm x 12cm. The parameter observed were shoot height (cm), leaves number (strands) and stem (cm). The results showed that differences in humps size has affected on the vegetative banana growth. As large as the hump size, some vegetative characteristics are getting higher, such as for the shoot height (cm), number of leaves (strands) and stem circumference (cm). Based on the research, it concluded that the humps size affected the vegetative seedling growth of dwarf banana plants.
