| Abstrak ABSTRACT Sandalwood (Santalum album Linn) has a type of seed that requires a long time to germinate. One factor that can help overcome seed dormancy in sandalwood is soaking the seeds in various concentrations of young coconut water as a natural plant growth regulator (PGR). The soaking duration also plays an important role in accelerating germination. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the effect of young coconut water concentration and soaking duration on the germination of sandalwood seeds. This research used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) in a factorial pattern with the first factor being young coconut water concentration: K0 = clean water (control), K1 = 50% (500 ml clean water + 500 ml young coconut water), and K2 = 100% (1000 ml young coconut water). The second factor was soaking duration: L0 = no soaking, and L1 = 24 hours of soaking. This resulted in 6 treatment combinations, each replicated 3 times with 10 seeds per replicate, totaling 180 sandalwood seeds in the entire experiment. The analysis of variance showed that the soaking treatment and young coconut water concentration did not have a significant effect on germination rate but had a significant effect on germination capasity. However, the interaction between the two treatments factors did not show a significant effect. The best concentration was found in treatment K2, with 100% young coconut water, yielding an average germination capasity of 63.6% and a germination rate of 60.3 days, significantly different from K1 and K0. The best soaking duration was found in treatment L1, with 24 hours of soaking. |
