The study was conducted to determine the growth performance of pili (Canarium ovatum) using coconut coir dust as growing substrate. Specifically, this study aimed to determine the effects of coconut coir dust on seedling height, number of leaves, and diameter; and determine the effects of coconut coir dust on the growth of roots of seedling. The experiment was conducted from October 2017 to February 2018 at the Experimental Station of College of Forestry, Nueva Vizcaya State University, Bayombong, Nueva Vizcaya, Philippines. The experiment was laid out in a row-column design with 2 treatments replicated 3 times. The treatments evaluated were as follows: control (garden soil), and garden soil with coconut coir dust. Effectiveness of each treatment was based on the height of the seedling, stem diameter, number of leaves, leaf area, root length and weight. It was concluded that the use of coconut coir dust has significant effect on the growth of the Pili seedling.
