INTRODUCTION
Cucumber is one of the most widely consumed fruit vegetables in
Indonesia because the nutritional value of cucumber is quite good as a source of
minerals and vitamins (Andrie, Napitupulu, & Jannah, 2015) (Wang, Wang, &
Song, 2021). The nutritional content per 100 g is 0.5 mg iron, 0.45 vitamin A, 0.3
vitamin B1 and 0.2 vitamin B2. Cucumber plant (Cucumis sativus L.) which is
included in this vine is one type of fruit vegetable plant from the pumpkin family
(Cucurbitaceae) which is popular throughout the world and favored by the wider
community (Sallaku, Babaj, Kaciu, & Balliu, 2009). According to history, the
cucumber plant originated in Asia (Atiyeh, Edwards, Subler, & Metzger, 2000).
Some literature sources mention the origin of cucumber plants is North Asia, but
some are thought to have come from South Asia (Bayoumi, El-Henawy, Abdelaal,
& Elhawat, 2019). According to other literary sources, cucumbers come from
central and western China, then in northeastern India and Myanmar, the spread
and production of cucumbers in Indonesia from year to year continues to increase
(Sallam et al., 2021). For example, the area planted at the new location in the
province of South Sumatra is 2,463 Ha and yields 43.99 kg per Ha from a
production of 0.832 tons per year (Zahanis, Fatimah, & Anggraini, 2022).
Cucumber is also known in the health world as a cough medicine, fever
reducer, even cucumbers that are steamed and stored a day and night and then left
to stand will be efficacious in reducing pain and coughs (Bayoumi et al., 2019).
Cucumber is one of the plants whose growing conditions are very flexible,
because it can grow well in the lowlands and highlands. Cucumbers can grow and
adapt to almost all types of soil (Eifediyi & Remison, 2010). Cultivation is
widespread throughout the world, both in hot (tropical) and temperate (sub-
tropical) climates. In Indonesia, cucumber plants are grown in lowland and
highland areas 0–1000 meters above sea level (Samad, Shubzan, Haryanto, &
Abdullah, 2022). The areas that become the center of cucumber cultivation are the
Provinces of West Java, the Special Region of Aceh, Bengkulu, East Java and
Central Java. Cucumber, which is needed by the community both to fulfill
nutrition for the body, is also needed for the domestic cosmetic industry (Samad,
Mahmud, Abdullah, Haryanto, & Samad, 2021)(Samad, Mahmud, Sabban,
Haryanto, & Abdullah, 2021). Currently, Indonesia has exported cucumbers to
several countries such as Malaysia, Singapore, Japan, England, France, and the
Netherlands (Esmaielpour, Einizadeh, & Pourrahimi, 2020).
Liquid fertilizer is the result of decaying organic materials derived from
plant residues, animal and human wastes that contain more than one nutrient
element (Oke et al., 2020). Organic fertilizers have the advantage of being able to
quickly overcome nutrient deficiencies and not having problems in nutrient
leaching as well as being able to provide nutrients quickly. Liquid fertilizers
generally do not damage the soil and plants even though they are used as often as
possible, this solution also has a binder so that the fertilizer solution applied to the

soil surface can be directly used by plants (Panggabean, Samiaji, & Efriyeldi,
2021).
Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) plant creeping generally consumed by
directly (Andrie et al., 2015). Potency fruit cucumber have opportunity business
like pickles, pickles, juices and others (Polat et al., 2009). Benefit as vegetables
and drug cough. Fruit cucumber contain protein (Rahmawati, 2014). Indonesia
2019 cucumber descent production of 435,975 (BPS, 2019). This thing low
productivity land (Panggabean et al., 2021). Fertilization business for raise
fertility plants. Waste vegetables is vegetables that don't used then read fine and
activator speed up fermentation for needed plants. so that land normal Becomes
sustainable, is degraded (Roe, Stoffella, & Graetz, 1997). Based on problem on so
conducted study about gift combo waste vegetables for could nourish plant so that
take effect production this and how influence compost vegetables to character
growth and production cucumber.
RESEARCH METHOD
Research this implemented in the village South Ternate Tabona for 4
months started from month January – April 2022. Seed cucumber, medium plant,
water, dirt goat, EM4, compost waste vegetables. Tool hoe, meter, scale,
handsprayer, polybag, pH meter. Method study this is study experiment field with
using polybag media. design random group (RAK) treatment 5 and test 3 is B0)
without treatment, B1) 6 kg of soil + 4 kg of compost, B2) 5 kg of soil + 5 kg of
compost, B3) 4 kg of soil + 6 kg of compost, B4) 3 kg of soil + 7 kg of compost.
Character observation tall plant, number strand, fruit, fruit diameter, fruit length,
weight fresh. Data analysis using Analysisof variance (BNT) 0.05.
The process of making compost media with prepared materials consist
from waste vegetables as much as 70 kg, top soil as much as 54 kg, prepare hole
measuring 1x1 meter and dialed with tarpaulin plastic size 2×3 meters. Stage
composting namely 1) Count until fine one one by one all waste agriculture used ,
2 ) Input soil with height ± 1 cm in equally to in the prepared hole , 3 ) Then
coated waste vegetables with ± 5 cm height by evenly , 4) Water with M4 in
equally with size 1 liter on every layer with use cheers , 5) Repeat again step
above 10 times later ingredient compost closed , 6) Let compost for 5 days , then
open return and stirred until well mixed and closed return then left for 30 days , 7)
After ripe compost waste agriculture ready used as a planting medium , 8) waste
added farm with soil in accordance with treatment, the media entered into
polybags. Procedure research. Preparation seeds good cucumber and quality.
Planting seed cucumber , before seed Cucumbers are planted , especially first
soaked dry and seed cucumbers are planted directly in the poly bag that has been
filled soil and compost waste vegetables, gifts label, maintenance sprinkling and
weeding what when around land and in the polybag there are growing weeds,
embroidery _ conducted if there is seed cucumbers that don't grow or die , harvest
cucumber harvested after 35-40 days old after plant , harvest by gradually with
period 1 week time , done 3 harvests ._
