Abstract

Garlic production is practiced vegetatively through cloves/bulbs. However, naturally garlic also produce bulbils in stem or scape (topset). The agronomic characters of this tiny bulb-like form has been rarely discussed despite its potential for soil borne disease free seed production. This research carried out in March 2019 was aimed to evaluate some of plant morphological characters from garlic bulblets. These bulbils were harvested from Indonesia garlic variety known as Lumbu Hijau. Completely Randomized Block Design was applied throughout 4 treatment combinations e.g immersion duration and dose of growth hormone with 3 replications. Seedling percentage, plant height, number of leaf, fresh weight, dry weight, bulb height, number of clove and number of bulbils were evaluated. Although the result showed that all treatments were not significant for all characters, they showed fairly high percentage of seedling. Plant height (75 DAP) ranged between 26.99 – 30.75 cm with 3-4 number of leaves. Plants were harvested on 120 DAP where fresh weight ranged 55.90 - 68.46 gram/plant. After two months wind dried, bulb diameter range 20.40 – 21.60 cm and bulb height range 15.31 – 16.18 cm were then recorded. This results indicated that more agronomy studies need to be done for improving quality of bublets as a promising alternative in garlic production.
