The use of fish washing water and rice-washing water has been widely used to stimulate plant growth. Because fish washing water and rice washing water have good content for plant growth and water used for fish washing and rice washing is very easy to obtain, the use of fish washing water and rice washing water to stimulate the growth of calliandra seedlings is very good to use. This study aims to study the effect of washing water of fish and washing water of rice on the growth of calliandra (Calliandra calothyrsus) plants. This research was conducted in the Permanent Nursery of BPDASHL Kapuas, Pontianak City with a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) experimental method consisting of 6 treatments and 3 replications. The treatments consisted of no treatment (P0), 50 ml washing water of rice (P1), 50 ml washing water of fish (P2), a combination of 50 ml washing water of rice and 50 ml washing water of fish (P3), a combination of 100 ml washing water of rice and 100 ml washing water of fish (P4), a combination of 150 ml washing water of rice and 150 ml washing water of fish (P5). The data collected were the size of the seedling height (cm), the diameter of the base of the stem (mm) and the number of leaves. The results showed that the provision washing water of rice and washing water of fish had an effect on the growth of calliandra seedlings until the age of 8 weeks. Giving treatment with 150 ml washing water of rice + 150 ml washing water of fish was the best treatment for height growth, increase in stem diameter and number of leaf stalks of calliandra seedlings.Keywords: Calliandra, Fish Water Washing, Rice Water Washing. AbstrakPenggunaan air cucian ikan dan air cucian beras telah banyak digunakan untuk merangsang pertumbuhan tanama. Karena air cucian ikan dan cucian beras memiliki kandungan yang baik untuk pertumbuhan tanaman dan air bekas cucian ikan dan cucian beras sangat mudah didapat, maka penggunaan air cucian ikan dan air cucian beras untuk merangsang pertumbuhan bibit kaliandra sangat baik untuk digunakan.  Penelitian bertujuan untuk melakukan kajian pengaruh pemberian air cucian ikan dan air cucian beras terhadap pertumbuhan tanaman kaliandra (Calliandra calothyrsus). Penelitian dilaksanakan di Persemaian Permanen BPDASHL Kapuas Kota Pontianak dengan metode eksperimen Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) yang terdiri dari 6 perlakuan dan 3 ulangan. Perlakuan terdiri dari tanpa perlakuan (P0),50 ml air cucian beras (P1), 50 ml air cucian ikan (P2),kombinasi 50 ml air cucian beras dan 50 ml air cucian ikan (P3), kombinasi 100 ml air cucian beras dan 100 ml air cucian ikan (P4), kombinasi 150 ml air cucian beras dan 150 ml air cucian ikan (P5). Parameter pengamatan adalah ukuran tinggi bibit (cm), diameter pangkal batang (mm) dan helai daun. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemberian air cucian beras dan air cuci ikan berpengaruh terhadap pertumbuhan bibit kaliandra sampai umur 8 minggu. Pemberian pemberian perlakuan air cucian beras air cucian beras 150 ml + air cucian ikan 150 ml merupakan perlakuan yang terbaik untuk pertumbuhan tinggi, pertambahan diameter batang dan jumlah tangkai daun bibit kaliandra.Kata kunci : Kaliandra, Air Cucian Ikan, Air Cucian Beras
