The first factor is palm bunch( 0, 10, 20, and 30 g/polybag). The second factor is urea fertilizer (0, 3, 6, and 9 g/polybag).The Parameter observed includes plant hight (cm), number leafs (sheet), and fresh weight ofcrown (g.) The result of reseach showed that giving palm bunch ash influential not significantly toall parameters. Urea fertilizer influential significantly on plant height and number of leafs.Interaction between giving palm bunch ash and urea fertilizer influential not significantly to allparameters.Key Words : Palm bunch ash, urea fertilizer, cocoa, nursery
