Abstract

This study aims to determine the growth and yield of cayenne pepper due to spacing treatment and liquid organic fertilizer dosage. This study used a factorial (RBD) pattern which consisted of two factors, the first factor was the spacing (T) which consisted of 3 (three) levels, namely: T₁ = 70 x 50 cm, T₂ = 70 x 60 cm and T₃ = 70 x 70 cm, the second factor is the concentration of liquid organic fertilizer (P) which consists of 3 (three) levels, namely: P₁ = 2 l cc/l water, P₂ = 4 l cc/l water and P₃ = 6 liters cc/l water. The results showed that spacing had a very significant effect on plant height at 15 days after planting, stem diameters at 15, 30 and 45 days after planting, number of productive branches at 45 days old and significantly different at plant heights at 30 and 45 days after planting, not significantly different on fruit weight per plant and net perlot fruit weight. The best spacing was found in treatment T₃ = 70 x70 cm. The concentration of liquid fertilizer had a very significant effect on plant height at 30 and 45 dap, stem diameter at 30 and 45 dap, number of productive branches, fruit weight per plant and fruit weight per net plot. The best concentration was found P₃ = 6 cc/liter of water. There was no significant interaction between plant spacing and liquid organic fertilizer concentration on all observed growth and yield variables of cayenne pepper plants.
