Lettuce (The current research was conducted to find the nitrogen content of fertilizer from coconut wastewater with microbial L. bulgaricus, L. acidophilus and S. thermophilus. The study was prepared based on a Completely Randomized Design with a single factor treatment. The treatments are P1: ZA 1.8 g/polybag Fertilizer, P2: Liquid Wastewater Fermented coconut water 250 ml/lt. water, P3: Fertilizer liquid wastewater of coconut water 500 ml/lt. water, P4: Fertilizer liquid wastewater of 250 ml fermented coconut/lt. water and R1M solution 10 ml/lt. water and P5: Liquid wastewater of fermented coconut water 500 ml/lt. of water and R1M solution 10 ml/lt. water. Each treatment was repeated as many as 3 replications. The growth observations included leaf area, wet weight, and dry weight of lettuce plant. The results showed that Inorganic fertilizer treatment and treatment of coconut wastewater fertilizer fertilized by L. bulgaricus, L. acidophilus, and S. thermophilus have no significant effect on leaf area formation, wet weight, and dry weight of lettuce plant. Coconut wastewater fertilizer is fermented by L. bulgaricus, L. acidophilus, and S. thermophilus concentration of 250 ml/lt. of water able to spur the growth of lettuce plant. An increase in waste output will accompany increased advancement in the coconut food industry's technologies. The waste of coconut water that is prevalent in the marketplaces emits an odor. Coconut water is an excellent media if it is used for the development of microbes.
