The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of npk16-16-16 fertilizer and application time on red chili plant growth. The research was conducted in Afdeling 2 plantation area, West Bila Subdistrict, Labuhanbatu Regency. This research was carried out from October 2021 to February 2022. The design used in this study was a randomized block design (RAK) and used a 3x3 factorial consisting of 2 factors.

The second factor is the application time of NPK 16-16-16 fertilizer with 3 levels, K1: once a week, K2: once every 2 weeks, K3: once every 3 weeks. Observational data were analyzed with a 5% level of variance to determine whether there was a significant difference between treatments. Followed by Duncan's New Multiple Range Test (DMRT) level 5% if there is a significant difference in each treatment. The results showed that the treatment at a dose of 9 g/plant gave a good trend in plant height growth. while the dose of 6 g/plant gave a tendency of good yields in all yields and several observations of the growth of flowering age and leaf area.]]>
