RESPON TANAMAN CABAI RAWIT (Capsicum frutescens L.) TERHADAP APLIKASI Trichoderma sp. PADA BEBERAPA MEDIA TANAM

  ABSTRAKTujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui interaksi antara kombinasi media tanam dan dosis Trichoderma sp. cair terhadap pertumbuhan dan produksi tanaman cabai rawi. Rancangan yang digunakan Rancangan Acak Kelompok (RAK) Faktorial yang terdapat 2 faktor dan 3 ulangan. Faktor pertama adalah kombinasi media tanam dengan 3 level yaitu M1=tanah; M2=tanah : arang sekam (1:1); dan M3=tanah : arang sekam : pupuk kandang (1:1:1). Faktor kedua yaitu dosis Trichoderma sp. cair dengan 3 level yaitu T1= 5 ml per tanaman, T2= 10 ml/tanaman, dan T3=15 ml/tanaman. Variabel yang diamati meliputi tinggi tanaman, diameter batang, total jumlah buah, dan total bobot buah. Data dianalisis menggunakan analisis ragam (Uji F) dan tes lebih lanjut dengan uji duncan (DMRT) taraf 5%. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa: terdapat interaksi yang sangat nyata pada kombinasi media tanam tanah, arang sekam, pupuk kandang dan pemberian Trichoderma sp. cair, kombinasi terbaik yaitu perlakuan media tanam tanah, arang sekam, pupuk kandang yang ditambahkan larutan Trichoderma sp. cair 10 ml (M3T2) pada variabel tinggi tanaman dan diameter batang pada umur 14, 28, 42, 56, dan 70 HST, kombinasi terbaik yaitu perlakuan media tanam tanah, arang sekam, pupuk kandang yang ditambahkan larutan Trichoderma sp. cair 10 ml (M3T2) pada variabel total jumlah buah pertanaman sebesar 98,98 buah dan total bobot buah peranaman sebesar 104,31 gram. ABSTRACTThe aim of the research was to  determine 1.   interaction of the different planting media and the dose of Trichoderma sp. to the growth and yield of ot chili  plants, 2. the effect of planting media to the growth and yield of hot chili  plants production, 3) the effect of Trichoderma sp. to growth and yield of hot chili plant production. The design used was a Factorial Randomized Block Design (RBD) which contained 2 factors and was repeated 3 times. The first factor are the combination of planting media with 3 levels, namely soil, soil : husk charcoal (1:1), soil : husk charcoal : manure (1:1:1). The second factor are dosage of Trichoderma sp.  solution. with 3 levels namely Trichoderma sp. 5 ml per polybag of plant, Trichoderma sp. 10 ml / polybag of plant, Trichoderma sp. 15 ml/polybag of plant. Variables observed included plant height, stem diameter, total number of fruits, and total fruit weight. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance (F test) and further tests with duncan test (DMRT) level of 5%. The results showed that: there is a very real interaction in the combination of soil planting media, husk charcoal, manure and Trichoderma sp. liquid, the best combination is the treatment of soil planting media, husk charcoal, manure added with Trichoderma sp. 10 ml liquid (M3T2) at variable plant height and stem diameter at the ages of 14, 28, 42, 56, and 70 DAP (Day After Planting). The best combination was the treatment of soil planting media, husk charcoal, manure added with Trichoderma sp. 10 ml/polybag of plant (M3T2) in  variable of the number of fruits total was 98.98 and the total fruit weight was 104.31 grams.
