The aim of this research was to examine the effect of light intensity on the growth of Shorea balangeran (Korth.) Burck seedling. This research was carried out at the nursery. The experiment was arranged in Randomized Complete Design with four treatments and three replications. Light intensity was rated using single, double and triple layers of black sarlon on top of the seedlings and natural shading. The result of the research showed that the increased in light intensity significantly decreased the growth of height, diameter, leaves area and total dry weight, but not the number of leaves. The highest growth of S. balangeran seedlings occurred in the natural shading treatment. The storage of S. balangeran seedlings in the nursery can be done by reducing the intensity of the light while still maintains its quality
