Effect of Varying Color LED Lights on Porang (Amorphophallus muelleri) Bulbil Seed Germination and Porang Plant Vegetative Growth Phase

Intensive cultivation is one of the strategies for developing Porang commodities to increase production by using LED lights as optimum lighting for Porang cultivation. Porang bulbil was germinated and planted in a growth chamber with 100% red, 100% blue, 100% white, and 67%:20%:13% red:blue:white li...

Description
Summary:Intensive cultivation is one of the strategies for developing Porang commodities to increase production by using LED lights as optimum lighting for Porang cultivation. Porang bulbil was germinated and planted in a growth chamber with 100% red, 100% blue, 100% white, and 67%:20%:13% red:blue:white lighting. Compared to other LED treatments and sunlight, red:blue:white LED had the best effect on Porang plant germination parameters in the first 30 days, with 100% of germination parameters (GP %), 17.2 days of mean germination time (MGT), 6.33%/day of germination rate index (GRI), 5.81% of germination velocity coefficient (CVG), and 138.0 of germination index (GI). For the next 30 days, red:blue:white LED had the best effect on Porang plant vegetative growth, with 29.64 cm plant height, 11.43 cm crown diameter, 21.96 cm root length, 17.342 g fresh weight, 1.368 g dry weight, and 57.53 leaf green index. The plant height prediction model is used to predict crop yield, with the coefficient of determination (R2), root means square deviation (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), and average absolute percentage error (MAPE) values up to 0.9854, 0,6894, 1,2623, and 3,9413, respectively, under model validation of the combination of LED.
