Abstract
This study aims to determine the testing of liquid organic fertilizer from water
hyacinth on the growth and yield of cucumber plants. This research was conducted in the experimental garden of the Faculty of Agriculture, Teuku Umar Meulaboh University, West Aceh, starting from August 2019 until completion. The materials used in this study were the Hercules variety cucumber seeds, water hyacinth POC, babybags and polybags. While the tools that will be used include hoes, machetes, fansticks, measuring cups, analytical scales, wheelbarrows, gauges, nameplates, cameras and writing instruments. This study used an experimental design used in this study was a non-factorial randomized block design with 3 replications in total, there were 8 treatments. The factors studied were the concentration of liquid organic water hyacinth (K) consisting of eight levels including K0 = 0 (control), K1 = 100 ml, K2 = 150 ml, K3 = 200 ml, K4 = 250 ml, K5 = 300 ml, K6 = 350 ml and K7 = 400 mm. Variables observed were plant length, stem diameter, number of fruits, fruit length, fruit diameter, fruit weight and production per ha. F test results on the analysis of variance showed that the water hyacinth POC had a very significant effect on plant length of 10 HST, stem diameter of 20 HST, number of fruits, fruit weight and production per ha. significant effect on plant length 20 and 30 HST, stem diameter 10 and 30 HST, fruit diameter and fruit length
