Abstract
Fig is shrub with short stems, creeping, not many trunks and woody which have cambium tissue due to thickening between the xylem and phloem, can grow and bear fruit in the hot sun or in the desert. Fig plant is a plant that has many benefits. The purpose of this research is to determine the effect of natural Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) (mature coconut water, young coconut water and shallot extract) and obtain the best concentration of PGR for Fig plant cuttings. The study was carried out by field trial methods arranged in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with a single factor trial design. The treatments tested were the addition of PGR from natural ingredients, namely: mature coconut water 20% and 30%, young coconut water 20% and 30%, red shallot extract 60% and 70% and commercial PGR (Root-Up™™). Each treatment was repeated 3 times. The results of this search showed that all-natural PGR tested, namely from young coconut water concentrations of 20% and 30%, mature coconut concentrations of 20% and 30% and shallots concentrations of 60% and 70% can be used to increase the growth of Fig plant cuttings. All natural PGRs tested, namely young coconut water with a concentration of 20% and 30%, mature coconut with a concentration of 20% and 30% and shallots with a concentration of 60% and 70% can be used to increase the growth of fig plant cuttings.
