Bogidarmanti R, Darwo. 2016. The effect of variation weaning media on growth and quality of Alnus nepalensis seeds weaning. Pros Sem Nas Masy Biodiv Indon 2: 263-266. Alnus (Alnus nepalensis DON) is one kind of exotic plant from India and has been developed in Indonesia, especially in West Java. Usefulness of Alnus wood among others can be used as an ingredient in tea boxes, buffer /pier, matches, and paper. Reproduction of this species is generally done in generative from seed, but to support the continuation of seedlings for rehabilitation activities can also be used its wildlings. The purpose of this study was to determine the suitable type of weaning media for supporting Alnus wildlings growth. The media type of weaning used three kinds of pure soil, pure compost and mixture of soil and compost [1: 1 (v / v)]. The study design used a completely randomized design with each unit number 50 wildlings and repeat 3 times. Parameters measured were percent of growth survival, height, diameter, biomass and seed quality index. The results showed that use of a variation of media types very significantly affect on height, diameter, biomass and seed quality index of Alnus wildlings, but did not significantly affect to the percent of growth survival. The best seedlings quality index (1,50) can be obtained by using of weaning media mixture of soil and compost [1: 1 (v/v)]. Nutrient availability in the weaning media mixture of soil and compost is relatively higher than the other weaning media.
