Kale (brasicca oleracea var. acephala) merupakan tanaman holtikultura yang kaya akan nutrisi penting antara lain sulforaphane, vitamin beta karoten, dan flavonoid. pertumbuhan populasi di indonesia meningkatkan daya konsumsi pangan masyarakat yang berakibat peningkatan limbah organik, khususnya berupa sisa sayuran dan kulit buah. limbah organik tersebut memiliki potensi sebagai bahan baku dalam produksi pupuk organik cair. tujuan penelitian adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh dan konsentrasi pemberian eco enzyme terhadap pertumbuhan dan berat basah kale. penelitian menggunakan metode eksperimental dengan desain penelitian rancangan acak lengkap (ral). terdapat 5 taraf perlakuan dan 5 taraf ulangan, yaitu p0+: 5 ml/l ab mix, p1: eco enzyme 5 ml/l air, p2: eco enzyme 10 ml/l air, p3: eco enzyme 15 ml/l air, dan p0-: air (tanpa eco enzyme). data dianalisis menggunakan analisis varian (anava) dan diuji lanjut beda nyata jujur (bnj) dengan taraf signifikan 0,05. hasil penelitian menunjukkan pemberian eco enzyme berpengaruh secara signifikan terhadap jumlah daun (helai), panjang daun (cm), luas daun (cm2), dan berat basah (gram) kale. konsentrasi optimum untuk panjang daun (cm) dan luas daun (cm2) yaitu 5 ml/l eco enzyme sedangkan untuk jumlah daun (helai) dan berat basah (gram) yaitu 15 ml/l eco enzyme. simpulan dari penelitian ini adalah pemberian eco enzyme berpengaruh terhadap pertumbuhan dan berat basah kale. kata kunci: ab mix, berat basah, eco enzyme, kale, pertumbuhan.

Kale (Brassica oleracea Var. Acephala) is a horticultural plant rich in essential nutrients, including sulforaphane, beta-carotene, and flavonoids. The growing population in Indonesia has led to increased food consumption, resulting in a rise in organic waste, particularly vegetable scraps and fruit peels. This organic waste has potential as a raw material for producing liquid organic fertilizer. The aim of this research was to determine the effect and concentration of eco-enzyme application on the growth and fresh weight of kale. The study employed an experimental method with a Completely Randomized Design (CRD). There were five treatment levels and five replications: P0+: 5 ml/L AB Mix, P1: 5 ml/L eco-enzyme in water, P2: 10 ml/L eco-enzyme in water, P3: 15 ml/L eco-enzyme in water, and P0-: water (without eco-enzyme). Data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and further tested with an Honestly Significant Difference (HSD) test at a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that eco-enzyme application significantly affected the number of leaves (leaves), leaf length (cm), leaf area (cm2), and fresh weight (grams) of kale. The optimum concentration for leaf length (cm) and leaf area (cm2) was 5 ml/L eco-enzyme, while for the number of leaves (leaves) and fresh weight (grams), it was 15 ml/L eco-enzyme. The conclusion of this study is that eco-enzyme application influences the growth and fresh weight of kale. Keywords: AB Mix, Eco-Enzyme, Fresh Weight, Growth, Kale.
