Abstract

Soil water avaibility is one of the important factors for plant growth. Field capacity can be de determined by different methods.The objective of this research is to study the levels of field capacity by among methods at Ultisol texture with different soil texture and a response of pakcoy growth. This research was initiated with field capacity measurement with free drainage method 24 hours, free drainage 48 hours, and pressure plate at different soil textures, i.e. sandy loam and sandy clay loam. Furthermore, pakcoy planting with different watering treatment based on field capacity of each mentioned methods was carried out in greenhouse. Parameters that measured such as soil texture, field capacity, and weight of pakcoy. The results showed that field capacity on sandy loam (32,94%) was lower than sandy clay loam (35,78%). Measurement with free drainage method 24 hours produced the highest field capacity (37,63%) among the pressure plate method (33,39%) and free drainage method 48 hours (32,06%). Watering treatment based on field capacity of each method at different soil texture have significantly affect on fresh weight and dry weight of steams and leaves, and significantly affect on fresh weight of roots, and not significantly affect on dry weight of roots
