PENGARUH PEMBERIAN CUKA BAMBU AMPEL HIJAU (Bambusa vulgaris Schard var. vitata) TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN Neolamarckia cadamba (Roxb.) Bosser

Abstract

The utilization of bamboo into different variations product is a proof of the bamboo have meet a variety needs of the people. One of its uses is in to bamboo vinegar as liquid organic fertilizer. Hence, the potential bamboo vinegar need to be analyze of the effect on the growth of plants forestry. This study aims to analyze the bamboo vinegar are sourced from part of the body bamboo (root, stem, and leaves) and its dilution concentration, on the growth of Neolamarckia cadamba. The experimental design used Completely Randomized Factorial Design with two factors, namely bamboo vinegar sourced from the roots, stems, and leaves and its dilution concentration. Furthermore, the data was processed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Duncan's Multiple Range Test (DMRT). Different concentrations of bamboo vinegar were able to increase the diameter and number of leaves on Neolamarckia cadamba, but increase in the height only some treatments. The treatment of leaf-sourced bamboo vinegar with concentration of 5% (C7) significantly increased the height of Neolamarkia cadamba. Generally, bamboo vinegar sourced from roots, stems, and leaves with a concentration of 2 - 5% are still good for plant growth.
