Abstract

Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.), a member of the Solanaceae family, is a food plant that offers various health benefits, such as its potential anti-cancer effects and its ability to impact cholesterol levels. This research aimed to investigate the impact of coconut dregs compost and liquid organic fertilizer derived from onion skin on the growth and productivity of purple eggplant plants, specifically regarding plant height, flowering duration, time to harvest, and fruit yield. The research was conducted at Pensiunea Indah Housing Road in the Bakaran Batu District, Labuhanbatu Regency, from March to May 2024. The study methodology used two components of a factorial randomized block design (RAK). Factor 1 encompasses four tiers of utilizing organic fertilizer derived from shallot skins, including a control group and applications of 100. 200. and 300 ml per individual plant. Factor 2 comprises four different levels of coconut dregs compost: a control group and 75, 150, and 225 grams per plant. The study's findings indicated that the application of coconut dregs compost and liquid organic fertilizer derived from onion skins had a notable impact on the height of the plants, the age at which they started flowering, the duration of the harvest, and the quantity of Fruit produced. The ideal method for achieving optimal results in cultivating purple eggplant plants involves the application of a liquid organic fertilizer derived from a combination of composted onion peels and coconut dregs at dosages of 300 ml and 225 g. This specific blend has been found to enhance plant height, prolong bloom and harvest times, and increase fruit yield.
