Numerous weeds, including Yellow Creeping Daisy (Wedelia trilobata) are sources for compost. Compost efficacy is dependent on several factors, including the source of organic matter, the dosage, the application method, and the period of the application. The purpose of this study was to compare tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum, Mill) growth and yield at various Yellow Creeping Daisy (YCD) compost doses and application times. The experiment employed a completely randomized design (CRD) with a factorial arrangement consisting of two factors. The treatment combinations were repeated three times. The first factor was the timing of compost application, which were two and one weeks prior to planting, and on planting day. The second factor was the dosage of compost, which was 0, 10, 20, or 30 tons/Ha. Application of YCD compost 1-2 weeks before tomato planting provided greater yield than at planting, as indicated by number of fruit, fruit diameter, and fruit weight per plant. Higher dose of YCD compost application increased the yield of tomato. Application of the compost 2 weeks before planting at 30 tons/ha resulted in the highest yield of tomato.

The objective of this research was to examine the effect of giving Rice MOL and superior plant hormone on growth and yield of Chilli.  The experiment was arranged using the completely randomized design with two factors. The first factor was rice MOL (M), namely M0 (without rice MOL), M1 (50 cc/l water), M2 (100 cc/l water), and M3 (150 cc/l water).The second factor was application of superior plant hormone (H), consisting of four factor, namely H0 (without hormone), H1(1 cc/l water), H2 (2 cc/l water), and H3 (3 cc/l water). The parameters observed were plant height, flowering age, the first harvest age, fruit weight per plant, fruit weight per plot, and number of remaining fruit. Data were analyzed using statistical technique and continuing test of BNJ at 5% confident level. The results showed that the interaction of giving rice MOL and hormone had a significant effect on flowering age and harvest age with the best treatment M2H2 with 56.67 days and M2H2 with 112.67 days, respectively.  The rice MOL alone gave a significant effect on flowering age, the first harvest age, econmic fruit weight per plant, and  economic fruit weight per plot with the best treatment was M2. The superior plant hormone alone affected significantly plant height, flowering age, the first harvested age, economic fruit weight per plant, economic fruit weight per plot, and number of remaining uneconomic fruit per plant with the best treatment of H2.

Cultivation of cayenne pepper is still much dependent on the use of inorganic fertilizers on a large scale with a high dose. Optimizing the use of inorganic fertilizers needs to be done so that the cost of chili farming can be minimized and more environmentally friendly. Optimization of cayenne pepper cultivation can be done through intensification efforts that is through the addition of biological fertilizers and IAA growth regulators. It is necessary to study the use of biological fertilizer and IAA on the growth and yield of cayenne pepper. The objective of this research is to get the optimum dosage of biofertilizer and IAA concentration for growth and yield of cayenne pepper. This research was conducted from September to January 2016. This study used Completely Randomized Design (RAL) with two factors. The first factor was biological fertilizer consisting of: B0 (without biological fertilizer), B1 (2 g per polybag), B2 (4 g per polybag), B3 (6 g per polybag) and second factor ie IAA spray concentration: without IAA), I1 (2 mgL -1), I2 (4 mgL-1), I3 (6 mgL-1) were repeated four times to obtain 64 experimental units. The results showed that biological fertilizer treatment significantly affect the leaves leaf variation with the optimum dosage of biomass fertilizer that is 2.29 g per plant produces leaf area 5.59 cm2. Furthermore very significant effect on fruit weight variables with increased dosage of 2 g can increase the weight of chili pepper fruit. While the interaction of dosage of biological fertilizer and IAA concentration did not significantly affect each observation variables.
