Abstract

The need for pepper is increasing along with the development of the pepper-based food industry. One of the factors that affect the increase in pepper production is the availability of quality seeds. Vegetative propagation of pepper plants using stem cuttings or climbing tendrils is a recommended method because it produces good and uniform seedlings. One way to accelerate the growth of pepper from cuttings is the use of growth regulators. This study was conducted with the aim of finding out the most appropriate soaking time of pepper cuttings in the growth of shrub pepper cuttings. The research was carried out from October 22, 2023 to December 17, 2023 at the Experimental Garden of the Garden and Livestock UPT of Mercu Buana University Yogyakarta in Kaliurang Hamlet, Argomulyo Village, Sedayu District, Bantul Regency. Five types of soaking times of cuttings in rotoon-F, namely 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 hours have been tried using a completely randomized design method with three replications. The rotoon f concentration used was 300mg/l. The results showed that cuttings soaked with rotoon-f grew better than without being soaked. Variations in soaking times of up to 4 hours did not result different cuttings growth.
