The research was designed with a Split Plot Design. The main plot was melon variety consisting of Action 434 and Glamor varieties. Subplots were planting media consisting of several combinations, namely soil + baglog waste compost (2:1), soil + baglog waste compost + chicken manure (2:1:1), soil + baglog waste compost + cow manure (2:1:1), and soil + baglog waste compost + goat manure (2:1:1). The results showed that the Glamor variety gave the best leaf area (108.66 cm 2 ). Treatment of soil + baglog waste compost + chicken manure gave the best leaf area (122.01 cm 2 ), highest leaf chlorophyll content (41.77 mg/cm 2 ), longest root length (52.18 cm) and the largest fruit diameter (42.33 cm). The treatment of soil + baglog waste compost + cow manure gave the heaviest fruit weight (0.75 kg) and the highest fruit sweetness level (8.22 °brix). ## Keywords - Compost - Manure - Melon - Sowing - Agronomy - Cow dung - Chicken manure - Environmental science - Horticulture - Biology - Fertilizer --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
