Abstract
Aims: To determine the performance of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) as applied with vermi tea as organic fertilizer
 Study design: The experimental design was a completely randomized block design.
 Place and Duration of Study: Southern Philippines Agribusiness and Marine and Aquatic School of Technology (SPAMAST) Institute of Agricultural Technology and Entrepreneurial Studies (IATES) Buhangin, Malita, Davao Occidental from October 2019 to January 2020.
 Methodology: Randomized Complete Block Design with five treatments and replicated three times as follows: Treatment 1 (Control), Treatment 2 (150 ml of vermin-tea/liter of water), Treatment 3 (200 ml of vermin-tea/liter of water), Treatment 4 (250 ml of vermin-tea/liter of water) and Treatment 5 (300 ml of vermin-tea/liter of water).
 Results: Results showed that there was a significant effect of vermi tea as organic fertilizer application of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) in terms of weight of fruits harvested while there was no significant effect on the number of days to emergence, number of flowers per plant, length of fruits, the diameter of fruits, and number of fruits harvested was no significant effect.
 Conclusion: Based on the results, the application of vermi tea as organic fertilizer gives the best result only on the weight of fruit harvested where vermi tea as a source of Nitrogen, Phosphorous, and potassium has helped to develop cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) fruits.
