The result that with a total of 750 g produced in the first harvest, directly planted water spinach in the greenhouse with terracotta cooling system has the best growth and yield performance. The treatment obtained a 306.6 mm plant height mean, 5.10 mm stem diameter mean and 4.43 g fresh weight mean making it the best treatment among others.
