Chrysanthemum is one of the horticultural plants that are currently in great demand by lovers of ornamental plants, especially in urban areas. Currently, chrysanthemum cultivation is limited to the highlands, so the market demand for chrysanthemums cannot be met sustainably. This study aims to determine the effect of giving PGPR rice washing wastewater and elephant grass root extract and the effect of the type of planting medium for the growth of chrysanthemum plant cuttings production so that seeds can be obtained that have the potential to grow and develop in the lowlands. This study used a factorial completely randomized design (CRD) with PGPR concentration treatment (rice washing water and elephant grass root extract) and types of planting media. This study uses analysis of variance with a factorial completely randomized design (CRD) model, if there is a significant difference, then it is continued using the 5% HSD test. The results of this study showed that the combination of PGPR treatment and planting media had a significant interaction with the parameters of the number of leaves of chrysanthemum plants, it was seen in the combination of PGPR concentration of 400 ml/l + roasted husk + soil (2:1) at 35 DAP observations. Then the single factor of planting media treatment significantly affected the growth parameters of chrysanthemum plants. In addition, the single factor of PGPR significantly affected the parameters of chrysanthemum plants.
