Abstract: In the midst of limited agricultural land in urban areas, a hydroponic plant system is an effective and efficient solution. Varieties that are able to adapt to a wide range of environmental are needed. Hydroponic systems can produce better crops and good quality harvests. This research aims to obtain the harvest yield and harvest quality of hybrid chilli pepper using hydroponic systems. This research was carried out using a complete random design with one factor consisting of 7 hybrid chilli pepper varieties, namely UNIB C H 13, UNIB C H43, UNIB C H433, UNIB C H23, UNIB C H63, UNIB C H 83, UNIB C H53 and 2 commercial varieties (Taro and Lado). Each treatment was repeated 5 times, with 3 plants per repeat. The results of the study showed that in chilli pepper hybrid cultivated hydroponically, the plant components were better than in the field. However, the yield of fruit per plant is better in the field. The UNIB C H23 and UNIB C H83 genotypes have the best yield character in the cultivation of hydroponic systems. UNIB C H23 has a fast-flowering life, weight per fruit, number of fruits, and high fruit weight per plant. Meanwhile, UNIB C H83 has the best results in weight per fruit, fruit weight plant, fruit length, fruit diameter, and fruit skin thickness.
