Abstract

Hydroponic is a farming method that utilizes water, minerals, and oxygen. This study aims to find out the best nutrition towards growing curly lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) by using the NFT (nutrient film technique) hydroponic system integrated with sensors to measure EC concentration of nutrients, pH acidity, and RH air humidity. This study also incorporates a grouped randomized design with two nutritional treatment (code P1 and P2), with 20 replication. The results showed that nutrition P1 producing a better variable compared to nutrition P2 in terms of plant length, quantity of leaves, length of root, total mass of fresh plants, total mass of plant crown, total mass of fresh roots, and chlorophyl content. Key words: NFT hydroponic system, nutrition, curly lettuce
