Abstract The study aims to determine the effects of giving several types of manures on various chili pepper varieties. The experiment is a factorial experiment using a randomized block design (RBD) consisting of two treatment factors, namely type of manure (R) of 3 levels: R1 = Chicken Manure, R2 = Cow Manure, R3 = Rabbit Manure and type of varieties (V) of 4 levels: V1 = Genie varieties, V2 = Dewata varieties, V3 = Sigantung varieties, V4 = Gendut varieties. The interaction of varieties and type of manure as a very significant effect on the number of leaves and root fresh weight and significant effect on fresh weight and oven-dry leaves. The highest fresh weight and oven-dry weight was obtained in the interaction of Genie varieties with cow manure, namely 10.06 g and 1.68 g with an increase of 285.44% and 342.10% compared with the interaction of Sigantung varieties with cow manure, namely 2.61g and 0.38 g. The highest fresh root weight was obtained in the interaction of Genie varieties with cow manure, which was 3.09 g or increased 286.25% compared to interaction between Dewata varieties and cow manure, which was 0.80 g. Genie varieties with cow manure types provide better chili seedling growth compared to Dewata varieties and Sigantung varieties.
