Observation parameters were the plant height, leaf number, leaf length, leaf width, wet weight and dry weight of plants. The data were tested with Analysis of Variant (ANOVA) and followed by LSD test at 5% level. Based on the results of this study, it was concluded that the growth of mustard green plant by addition Paitan leaves based compost at various doses showed different growth of plants. the A3 Treatment is the most optimum dose to raise the growth of mustard green.
