As most mushroom spawns are in the form of cereals, wheat grain, sorghum and corn seeds that are used as a carrier for growth of mushroom mycelium. Inoculation of the grain spawn into media bags is an essential process. This inoculation process requires skill and focus to avoid contamination and wastage of time and material. Pellet spawn can be made by using sawdust, rice straw or wood (dowel) as carrier. This makes it simple to hold and inoculate due to its firm form instead of using grain spawn. Strains of selected edible mushrooms such as Pleurotus pulmonaris, Pleurotus florida and Schizophyllum commune are cultivated with wood pellet for mycelia colonisation. Mycelium colonisation on pellet (pellet spawn) is used for inoculation into substrate bag. The cost of pellet spawn production is 30% cheaper in mass production instead of grain spawn. The inoculation of pellet spawn into mushroom bag substrate are relatively easier and faster compared to use of grain spawn. Moreover, innoculation time on each bag could be reduced up to 40% compared with the conventional method. The production and use of pellet spawn among mushroom growers are still rare. Due to this, the use of pellet spawn is seen as an easy innoculation alternative, efficient and practical to mushroom growers.</p> Rini Sulistiani, Juanda Hakim, Khairul Asfamawi Khulidin, Abu Bakar Othman Copyright (c) 2025 Rini Sulistiani, Juanda Hakim, Khairul Asfamawi Khulidin, Abu Bakar Othman https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://ejurnal.univamedan.ac.id/index.php/alulum/article/view/799 Tue, 28 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0700 PENATAAN PARKIR BERBASIS GREEN TRANSPORTATION DI POLITEKNIK NEGERI MEDAN https://ejurnal.univamedan.ac.id/index.php/alulum/article/view/802 <p><em>Arranging the parking area by planning the need for vertical parking spaces based on green transportation can be done to increase the UI Greenmentric score at Politeknik Negeri Medan, </em><em>making the campus environmentally friendly.</em> <em>Therefore, the need for parking spaces is calculated.

Building Coverage Kota Jakarta saat ini adalah 60 persen terhadap luas lahan yang ada. Berarti luas lahan terbangun berbanding lahan terbuka adalah 60 : 40, 60 persen adalah luasan bangunan dan sisanya lahan terbuka seluas 40 %. Penelitian ini merencanakan sebuah lahan terbuka untuk dijadikan lokasi taman kota, tepatnya di Jalan Jenderal Basuki Rahmat, Cipinang Besar, Kecamatan Jatinegara, Jakarta Timur. Peruntukan lahan pada lokasi tersebut difungsikan untuk perdagangan dan jasa skala wilayah kota. Lahan terbuka dimaksudkan sebagai taman kota yang berfungsi sebagai tempat hiburan, istirahat, berkumpul. Dari fungsi – fungsi tersebut dapat direncanakan spot olah raga, kuliner, dan hobby bermanfaat. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah merancang sebuah lahan /tapak untuk dijadikan taman yang didalamnya terdapat beberapa fungsi untuk sarana hiburan, sarana berkumpul, sarana olah raga dan beberapa sarana penyaluran hobby. Perancangan tapak atau lahan harus mengikui kaidah – kaidah perancangan dengan elemen arsitektur yaitu proporsional, skala, Point of Interest, Unity, Komposisi (<em>Sequence</em>), keseimbangan (<em>balance</em>), Irama (<em>Accentuation &amp; Rhythm</em>).

The methodology used is the method of data collection (case study) and data analysis obtained from experiments and designing applications using LDR to control the movement mechanism of solar panels to obtain light energy in real-time. The results show that the integration of this sensor can increase energy production by up to 23% compared to conventional fixed systems. This system not only increases the effectiveness of solar power generation but also contributes to reducing maintenance costs and supports sustainable energy practices. The conclusion of the study shows that automatic angle adjustment on solar panels increases energy capacity by 13-19% compared to panels with fixed angles. The average power generated reaches 11.57 watts, higher than 10.07 watts from fixed panels.

The methods used are observation methods, field sampling, and analysis in the laboratory to obtain quantitative data. Observation parameters include soil pH, C-organic, Total Nitrogen, Available P, Cation Interchange Capacity, and Base Fulness. The results of the survey showed that the level of soil fertility at the site of the research was included in the low category. The main limiting factor that causes the low fertility of the soil is the low content of organic material in the soil. In order to improve the fertility status of the ground at the research site for further planting, it is necessary to make efforts such as irrigation and fertilization, as well as the addition of organic materials, to make the availability of nutrients for plants more affordable.</em></p> Fitra Syawal Harahap, Hilwa Walida, Syarifa Mayly, Sudarija Sudarija, Sulaiman Harahap, Muhammad Rizwan, Indra Gunawan, Wan Afriani Barus Copyright (c) 2025 Dedek Prayuda, Fitra Syawal Harahap, Hilwa Walida, Badrul Ainy Dalimunthe, Syarifa Mayly https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://ejurnal.univamedan.ac.id/index.php/alulum/article/view/626 Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0700 TIME HISTORY ANALYSIS PADA STRUKTUR BANGUNAN YANG MENGGUNAKAN BASE ISOLATOR https://ejurnal.univamedan.ac.id/index.php/alulum/article/view/874 <p><em>Base isolators are designed to protect structures from earthquake impacts by decoupling horizontal ground motion from the building.

Numerical simulations were conducted to compare the performance of structures with and without base isolators, focusing on maximum acceleration, velocity, and displacement. The results indicate that base isolators reduce maximum acceleration by 75.1%, velocity by 74.83%, and displacement by 34.79%.

A total of 16,000 ginger seeds were prepared for manual planting. Then, 16,000 ginger seeds were also prepared for planting using a transplanting machine. Several parameters observed in this study, such as plant height, rhizome width, rhizome weight and number of shoots. The results showed that the average ginger growth using machine is greater than manual on all parameters. The use of a transplanting machine in ginger planting was able to produce higher plant height, rhizome width, rhizome weight and number of shoots compared to manual planting.

The purpose of this study was to determine the response to the use of kasgotchar fertilizer and pearl NPK fertilizer on the production of white mustard (Brassica pekinensis L) varieties of Tahono CR. This study used a Factorial Randomized Block Design with 2 factors: Factor l, namely the provision of Biochar kasgot fertilizer (K) with 3 levels, namely: K0 = Control (0 kg / plot), K1 = 10 tons / ha (1 kg / plot), K2 = 20 tons / ha (2 kg / plot). Factor 2, namely the provision of NPK fertilizer 16: 16: 16 (P) with 4 levels, namely: N0 = Control (0 kg / plot), N1 = 100 kg / ha (0.01 kg / plot), N2 = 200 kg / ha (0.02 kg / plot), N3 = 300 kg / ha (0.03 kg / plot). The parameters observed in this study include fresh weight per crop and production per hectare (kg). The results of the study showed that the use of kasgotchar and NPK fertilizers did not differ significantly on fresh weight per crop, production per hectare. The best treatment was the K2N3 treatment (kasgotchar with a dose of 2 tons / ha, and NPK with a dose of 300 kg / ha.
