PENGARUH BERBAGAI JENIS MULSA TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN DAN HASIL KEMBANG KOL (Brassica oleracea var. Botrytis L) VARIETAS PM 126 F1
This study aims to determine the effect of various types of mulch on the growth and yield of cauliflower varieties PM 126 F1. To determine the effectiveness of various mulches compared to MPHP on the growth and yield of cauliflower varieties PM 126 F1. This research was conducted in the experimental field of the Faculty of Agriculture, Samudra University, Langsa City, Aceh Province with an altitude of ± 10 meters above sea level. This research was conducted from January to March 2022. This study was structured using a non-factorial randomized block design (RAK). The factors observed were several types of mulch, consisting of 13 mulch with 1 cauliflower variety PM 126 F1 which was repeated 3 times. Parameters observed included plant height, number of leaves, weight of plant stover, flower diameter, weight of plant flowers and production per hectare. The results showed that the type of mulch treatment significantly affected the parameters of plant height at 20 HST, number of leaves aged 20 HST and plant weight of wet stover at harvest. However, it did not significantly affect the parameters of flower diameter and plant flower weight and production per hectare at harvest. The best results were obtained by treatment M6 (empty palm oil bunches), M1 (MPHP), but equally good with M10 (broken bricks) and M11 (used cloth). To cultivate cauliflower plants it is recommended to use mulch of empty palm oil bunches, MPHP, broken bricks or used clot
