Abstract Indonesia is a country rich in natural resources and diversity, one of which is medicinal plants that grow wild. Indonesian people have long known medicinal plants that have been used for generations, most of them grow wild. There are many types of medicinal plants in Indonesia, one of which is the Pasote plant (Dysphania ambrosioides L.). This medicinal plant has been widely researched for its pharmacological effects and has even been produced by CV. Biovina. To produce a large amount of biomass, it is necessary to carry out domestication. Initial research was carried out for seeding and nurturing media that can grow well. This study aims to determine the morphological characteristics of Pasote (D. ambrosioides L.) plants in several planting media. An experimental experiment in the Biovina experimental garden with five treatments for 5 replicates. The media type is M1-M5. The results of the study on the morphological characteristics of Pasote plants (D. ambrosioides) in several planting media on the 0th to 28th day can be concluded that the morphology of Pasote plants is different in each planting medium. The largest planting medium with the highest number of leaves is 15 leaves in M4 media and the highest Pasote plant is also in M4 medium (sand medium: AB Mix) which is 6,596 cm. The highest percentage of germination was achieved in M4 of 100% and the fastest germination on the 2nd day occurred in Pasir and AB Mix media. The results of this study support good growth in the future for germination for 28 days is Sand : AB Mix media with an average environmental temperature of 26oC, air humidity of 3.3 and pH of the medium of around 6.6. The morphological character is the same as the morphological character when in the field in the original both color, smell, morphological shape of the leaves, roots and stems. The best media can be used in sandy planting media and AB Mix media.
