Abstract
Cayenne pepper is often found in the yard and around the house. Chili is a cultivated plant used as a vegetable crop and can be consumed directly with snacks. The demand for chili increases; meanwhile, the availability of chili fluctuates due to various factors such as; climate and nutrients in the soil (media). The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of liquid organic fertilizer (vermicompost) on the growth of cayenne pepper (Capsicum frutescens L.). From September to October 2021, the research was conducted at the Horticultural Plant Laboratory, Faculty of Agriculture, Cokroaminoto University Makassar, and South Sulawesi. The study applied an experimental method with a completely randomized design (CRD). It consists of four treatments and five replications. Thus, there were experimental units. The data were analyzed by analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey's test (HSD). The study found that 1) The average growth is significantly influenced by the higher dose of organic fertilizer on high plant growth, 2) the average plant growth (plant height) differs significantly between treatments, and 3) D, the treatment with a dose of 30 gr/l, is a treatment that is significantly different from other treatments. Thus, the application of organic fertilizer at a dose of 30 gr/l significantly affected the growth of cayenne pepper (Capsicum frutescens L.).
