Description
Summary:Cytokinins are hormones involved in all aspects of plant growth and development. Zeatin is one form of the most common forms of naturally occurring cytokinin in plants. Fresh Moringa oleifera leaves have been shown to have high zeatin content and also macro and micro element. Trials were carried out to evaluate the effect of different concentration of Moringa oleifera leaf extract as biostimulant on growth of Singgalang cabbage. Singgalang cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata L.) is a local cabbage cultivated by farmers on the slopes of Mount Singgalang, Agam, West Sumatera. In the greenhouse, four treatments were used: A (control), B (M. oleifera extract 1.5%), C (M. oleifera extract 3%) and D (M. oleifera extract 6%). The result showed that Moringa oleifera leaf extract (3%) increasing growth parameters including height, number of leaves, leaf area, wet weight and dry weight of Singgalang cabbage. 3% concentration of Moringa oleifera leaf extract significantly improves all parameters of vegetative growth of Singgalang cabbage.
