Effect of Combination and Varieties Growing Media on the Growth and Crop Tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill) in hydroponic substrate. This study aims to determine the best combination and variety of growing media on growth and yield of tomato plants in hydroponic substrate. Research conducted at the Experimental Farm, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Syiah Kuala, which lasted from January to May 2014. This study used a randomized block design 3 x 3 factorial design with three replications. This study consisted of two factors, the first factor is the combination of growing media consisting of a combination of sand + rice husk, sand + sawdust, sand + coconut coir. The second factor is composed of tomato varieties Hybrid varieties (Peto-seed), Superior (Ratna) and Local (Ground). Parameters measured were plant height and trunk diameter respectively at 15, 30, and 45 days after plant (HST), the number of flower planting age of 60, 67, 74, 81 and 88 days after planting, as well as the number of total fruit and total weight of the fruit planting. The results showed that growing media very significant effect on the diameter of the stem ages of 15 and 30 DAT, the number of flower planting age of 60, 67, 74, 81 and 88 days after planting, the number of total fruit crop and the weight of total fruit crop, significantly affected plant height age 15 and 30 DAT, and diameter at base age 45 HST. But no real effect on the plant height age of 45 HST. The growth and yield of tomato plants best seen in medium sand + husk. Varieties very significant effect on the amount of interest the age of 67 and 81 days after planting, the total number of fruit crops and fruit weight total crop. But no real effect on plant height and diameter at base age of 15, 30 and 45 days after planting. Growth and yield of tomato plants best seen in hybrid varieties (Peto-sedd). There is a very real interaction between the growing media and varieties of the total number of fruit crops and no real effect on other variables. Best interaction that combined treatment of the planting medium sand + rice husk and hybrid varieties (Peto-sedd).Keywords: tomatoes, Growing Media, varieties, hydroponic substrate.

This study aimed to determine the effect of rice husk ash on yield and growth of peanut plants. This research has been carried out in the experimental garden of the Faculty of Agriculture of the Islamic University of Indragiri Tembilahan, Tembilahan Hulu District, Indragiri Hilir Regency. The time of the study began from April to July 2017. This research was a field trial using the Randomized Block Design (RBD) method which consisted of 6 levels of treatment, they are; without rice husk ash, 1 ton/ha of rice husk ash, 2 tons/ha of rice husk ash, 3 tons/ha of rice husk, 4 tons/ha ash rice husk ash, and 5 tons/ha of rice husk ash. Each treatment was repeated three times to obtain 18 trial plots in the field. Data of this study were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The results showed that the administration of rice husk ash with various treatment doses, had a significant influence on the growth and yield of peanut plants. The treatment that has the best effect on the growth and yield of peanut plants has been found, which is an average of 3 tons/ha and 5 tons/ha.

Using agricultural wastes to produce organic substrates for organic vegetable cultivation is one of the most eco-friendly practices to reduce environmental pollution caused by these wastes. The objective of this study was to determine the best substrate formulation for growth and yield of Limnophila rugosa under organic-oriented farming. A single factor experiment was laid out in a completely randomized design with seven substrate formulations and three replications. Seven types of substrates were designated based on the composed materials of coconut coir dust, vermicompost, rice husk ash, rice husk, peanut shells. The results showed that the mixed substrates of 10% vermicompost + 60% coconut coir dust + 30% peanut shells led to optimum crop performance and highest yield. Particularly at the third harvesting time, Limnophila rugosa performed the highest number of branches (24.3 branches/plant), branch length (14.9 cm/branch), number of pairs of leaves (5.7 pairs of leaves/branch), leaf chlorophyll content (40.3 SPAD value), plant fresh weight (70.6 g/plant), total theoretical yield (7,133.6 kg/1,000 m2), total absolute yield (5,487.3 kg/1,000 m2) and total commercial yield (4,891.8 kg/1,000m2).

The increase in market demand red spinach (Amaranthus Gangeticus) makes the prospects very promising less than optimal for the growth of red spinach (Amaranthus Gangeticus) because soil fertility is low so that the provision of organic material can improve soil fertility through the improvement of the physical, chemical, and biological soil so that it can support the growth of red spinach. This study aims to determine the dose of manure, the dosage of rice husk ash as well as the interaction of dosage that is optimal for the growth and yield of red spinach.this research was conducted experimental farm of the faculty of science and technology with a height of 28 meters above sea level Labuhanbatu district in March to October 2020. Research design using group factorial consisting of two factors. The first factor, namely the granting of cow manure (L) with three levels, namely : L0 = 0 ton/ha (control) L1 = 2 ton/ha, equivalent to 200 g/m2 (the recommended dose), L2 = 4 ton/ha, equivalent to 400 g/m2, L3 = 6 ton/ha, equivalent to 600 g/m2. The second factor, rice husk ash (A) consists of 4 levels, namely : A0 = 0 ton/ha (control), A1 = 1 ton/ha equivalent to 50 g/m2 (the recommended dose), A2 = 1.5 tons/ha, equivalent to 75 g/m2.The Parameters measured were plant height (cm), number of leaves (strands), Weight per Plant Sample (g). The results showed that the administration of cow manure 4 ton/ha, equivalent to 400 g/m2 can increase plant height, leaf number, and weight per Plant of amaranth red. The provision of 1.5 tons/ha, equivalent to 75 g/m2 can increase plant height, the number of leaves plant red spinach (Amaranthus Gangeticus).Keywords: Rice Husk Ash, Red Spinach, Cow Manure, Plant Growth

On acid soils, maize growth cannot be optimal because of the high content of Al, Fe, Mg, and Zn, which has the potential to poison plants. Several nutrients such as P, Cu, and S are also available in small quantities for plants, thus inhibiting growth. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of oil palm empty fruit bunches compost and rice husk charcoal in increasing the growth and yield of maize on red-yellow podzolic acid soils. Bonanza F1 varieties were planted and treated with (T1) 5 t ha-1 of oil palm empty fruit bunches compost; (T2) 10 t ha-1 of oil palm empty fruit bunches compost; (T3) 5 t ha-1 rice husk charcoal; (T4) 10 t ha-1 rice husk charcoal; and (T5) 5 t ha-1 of oil palm empty fruit bunches compost + 5 t ha-1 of rice husk charcoal, and control plants were not given any treatment. The results showed that all treatments had a better and significantly different effect than the control plants. The application of oil palm empty fruit bunches compost and rice husk charcoal could boost plants height (149.75% - 289.88%), stems diameter (124.10% - 204.62%), number of leaves (131.01% - 223.26%), plants fresh weight (204.14% - 342.25 %), plants dry weight (136.77% - 165.76%), weight of maize cobs (178.77% - 292.72%), weight of maize cobs without maize husks (158.27% - 233.03%), maize cobs length (112.44% - 147.14%), maize cobs diameter (117.16% - 187.79%), and the weight of 100 maize kernels (110.92% - 201.72%). Among all treatments, the T5 treatment (5 t ha-1 of oil palm empty fruit bunches compost + 5 t ha-1 rice husk charcoal) was the best because it consistently gave the highest yields on all observed variables.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of rice husk ash dosage and eggshell on thegrowth and yield of red chili, and obtain a treatment that gives the best results on fruit red chili plant.The experiment was arranged with Group Random Design (RAK) with factorial design with twofactors and three replications, factor I is dose rice husk ash consists of three levels ie A0: 0 g /plant,A1: 25 gr / plant, A2: 50 g / plant, G3: 75gr / plant. The second factor is the dose eggshell consists of3 levels ie: C0: 0 g / plant, W1: 15 gr / plant and W2: 30 gr / plant. The experiment will have 9combination treatment from those 2 factors. The resutls showed that the provision of rice husk ashgive the significant effect on height plant growth and the number of leaves, the best dose is theprovision of rice husk ash 50 gr / plant. Provision of eggshell give real effect on plant yield of redpepper that is the number of productive branches, number of fruits per plant and fruit weight cropwith the best dosage is 30 gr / plant.
