The method used in the Completely Randomized Design consisted of 5 treatments, 5 replications and each replication there were 4 plant samples. The treatment was as follows: (P1) 5 ml / water, (p2) 10 ml / water, (p3) 15 ml / water, (p4) 20 ml / water and (p5) 25 ml / water. The variables observed in this study were root volume (cm3), Total Leaf Area (cm2) dry weight (g), leaf chlorophyll (sped unit), plant height (cm), number of fresh fruit (g) and weight of planting fruit (g ). The results showed that the administration of mangrove POC with a concentration of 15ml / liter of water showed the best growth and yield of okra on peat soil. Keywords:POC, peat soil, okra
