Uji Kemiringan Talang Sistem Fertigasi Hidroponik NFT (Nutrient Film Technique) pada Budidaya Tanaman Sawi (Brassica juncea L)

Abstract

Hydroponic NFT (Nutrient Film Technique) is a model by placing the roots of plants cultivated in a thin layer of solution. Solution was circulated for 24 hours and contain plant nutrients as needed. The research of NFT irrigation was carried out to study on Electric Conductivity(EC) uniformity and pH of nutrient liquid as well as effectivity of gutters gradient application. The research was done with planting the plants in gutters that hold by styrofoam, after wards recording data according to available parameter was carried out during crop growth. The research showed that 9 % gradient of gutter resulted better yield produce than 6 % gradient of gutter. The research was concluded that 9 % gradient of gutter application was more effective
