Abstract

<pre><span>Silk Sarong Samarinda is a sarong typical samarinda made using imported silk thread from China. Quality mulberry plants are needed to support the cultivation of silkworms (sericulture). Quality mulberry plants are obtained by in vitro propagation techniques. The success of in vitro culture needs to be supported also by the growth medium suitable for acclimatization stage and plantlet growth. As the medium grows peat has several advantages that are light, water-binding power and high air, porous and can create a good environment for the development of plant roots. Acclimatization by using peat media done in glass house. This research uses Completely Randomized Design (RAL) method with 5 (five) kinds of growing media combined with manure, compost and charcoal husk and without fertilization as control. Peat soil media successfully used for the growth of mulberry acclimation. Of the 5 (five) growing media attempted, the best growth of mulberry plants is on peat-growing medium: manure: charcoal husk (1: 1: 1) until 12 weeks after planting (MST) the addition of the number of shoots, the addition of the number of leaves as well as to the growth of plant height where at that height mulberry plants ready to be planted in the field.</span></pre>

Highlights

Sarong weaving Samarinda is a typical sarong of Samarinda city
Based on research on mullet planlet acclimatization on various mixture of peat soil media (Table 1), the results obtained with percentage of mulberry seedlings that live on some planting media compositions
The results showed that the number of mulberry seedlings for 12 MST planted on peat soil media composition: manure: husk charcoal (1:1:1) gave the best response and resulted in the highest shoot average of 4.8 buds, while the lowest on the control is 2.3

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Sarong weaving Samarinda is a typical sarong of Samarinda city. This sarong is made from imported silk spun silk raw material from China. Plant breeding with tissue culture biotechnology can produce prime seed clones With these technologies the development of mulberry seedlings can accelerate growth compared to conventional mulberry seedlings. Peat soil is a type of soil that has a high content of organic material formed from the remains of plants that have not completely decomposed due to environmental conditions of poor nutrients and water saturated. As a growing medium, peat has several advantages that are light, water-binding power and high air, porous and can create a good environment for the development of plant roots. Peat is a decomposing organic substance partly formed in wetlands or the accumulation of vegetation, half-decayed large wood Over time, this material becomes peat which has the richest organic and carbon content compared to other soil types. Ability of adaptation of peat soil to the growth of mulberry planlet (Morus sp.)
