ABSTRACT
Farmers of coffee have so far practiced generative propagation. Seed
dormancy is a common issue in the production of generative coffee. The length of
the germination process undoubtedly affects the quantity of seeds available, hence
growth regulators soaking is required to get around it. One of the plants that may
be utilized as a source of the hormone gibberellin is the water hyacinth. The goal
of this study was to find a therapy that would effectively break the dormancy of
Liberika coffee seeds by soaking coffee seeds in water hyacinth extract. In this
study, 4 levels of treatment were used, with P0 being a 24-hour soak in water
(control), P1 representing a 12-hour soak in water hyacinth extract, P2
representing a 24-hour soak in water hyacinth extract, and P3 representing a 36-
hour soak in water hyacinth extract. For a total of 20 experimental units, each
treatment was repeated five times. The findings demonstrated that the length of
time Liberika coffee seeds were soaked in water hyacinth extract significantly
affected breaking the dormancy of coffee seeds, including when 50% of sprouts
appeared, when 50% of cotyledons ruptured, germination power, and germination
speed, but had no significant impact on seedling height, root length, seedling wet
weight, or seedling dry weight. Coffee seeds should be soaked in water hyacinth
extract for at least 24 hours for the best results.
