Konsentrasi pupuk daun yang berbeda diduga berpengaruh terhadap pertumbuhan dan hasil pada tanaman terung ungu (Solanum melongena L.). Oleh karena itu penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh pengunaan pupuk daun pada proses peningkatan pertumbuhan dan hasil tanaman terung ungu. Penelitian ini menggunakan Rancangan Acak Kelompok (RAK) dengan satu faktor : T0 = Kontrol (tanpa pupuk), T1 = 0,2%, T2 = 0,4%, T3 = 0,6% dan T4 = 0,8%. Data dianalisis dengan mengunakan uji ANOVA. Jika berbeda nyata, maka dilanjutkan uji BNJ 5%. Parameter yang diamati meliputi, tinggi tanaman, diameter batang, jumlah daun, jumlah bunga, jumlah buah, diameter buah dan bobot buah. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian. Perlakuan T4 diketahui mampu meningkatkan pertumbuhan dan hasil pada tanaman terung ungu lebih baik dibandingkan dengan perlakuan lainya. Hal ini ditinjau dari tinggi tanaman sebesar 34,61 cm, diameter batang sebesar 1,35 mm, jumlah daun sebanyak 22,10 helai. Selain itu perlakua T4 menghasilkan jumlah bunga sebanyak 12,25 bunga. Namun jumlah buah terbanyak dijumpai pada perlakuan T4 sebanyak 4,25 buah. Sedangkan pada parameter bobot buah diketahui perlakuan T4 mampu menghasilkan buah terberat, yaitu sebesar 187,10 gram. Sedangkan pada parameter diameter buah perlakuan T4 menghasilkan diameter sebesar 5,19 cm.

Foliar fertilizer concentrations is believed to have an impact on purple eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) plant development and its result. The purpose of this study was to ascertain how applying foliar fertilizer affected the process of growing and producing more purple eggplant plants. A single factor was included in this study using a Randomized Block Design (RAK): T0 = Control (no fertilizer), T1 = 0.2%, T20.4%, T3 = 0.6%, and T4 = 0.8%. The ANOVA test was used to evaluate the data. If there is a significant difference, proceed to the 5% BNJ test. Plant height, stem diameter, number of leaves, number of flowers, number of fruits, fruit diameter, and fruit weight were among the metrics that were noted based on the study's findings. The T4 therapy is known to be more effective than other treatments at promoting the development and yield of purple eggplant plants according to the study's findings. This was evident from the 34.61-cm-tall plant, 1.35-mm-diameter stem, and 22.10 strands of leaves. Furthermore, 12.25 blooms were produced by the T4 treatment. Nonetheless, the T4 therapy had the highest fruit count 4.25 of any treatment. It was recognized that the T4 treatment could give the biggest fruit, weighing 187.10 grams, in the fruit weight parameter. The T4 treatment yielded a diameter of 5.19 cm in the fruit diameter measure. Keywords: Concentration, Foliar Fertilizer, Growth, Yield, Purple Eggplant
