This research using Completely randomized design method with observations viability, height, diameter, robustness seedlings and seed quality index.  Results of tests known that character nyamplung growth is influenced by the media and seed handling. Cocopeat media will improve  the viability but debase of growth, so that the necessary weaning with a more fertile medium. Handling seed by stripping the shell has a good influence on the growth and quality of seeds. Based on research, nyamplung requiring scarification with cocopeat media and stripping the shell.
