This study was conducted to determine the effect of various types of organic materials, as components of the planting medium, on the growth of three ginger cultivars. The experiment was conducted at the Faculty of Agriculture Experimental Garden UGJ, starting from May to July 2019. The materials used in this study were three ginger cultivars, namely Gajah, Merah and Emprit, husk charcoal, sheep manure, and compost of mushroom media planting, NPK fertilizer (15:15:15) while the pesticides used are fungicides and granular insecticides. The experimental design used was a randomized complete design (RCD) with 9 (nine) treatments, consisting of a combination of types of organic matter (compost mushroom media planting, sheep manure, and husk charcoal) with ginger cultivars (Gajah, Merah, and Emprit). Observations were made on the number of shoots that appeared, plant height, number of leaves, and stem diameter. The results showed that the three organic matter used had a significant effect on the growth of the three ginger cultivars. The best growth is obtained from Emprit ginger which is planted in a mixture of soil with sheep manure.
