Yield and quality of hydroponically cultivated melon are influenced by the application of nutrients concentrations. In addition, regulation of fruit number per plant is one factors that can improve melon yield and quality. This study aimed to determine the best concentration of AB mix nutrient solution and fruit number arrangement per plant to enhance melon production and fruit quality. Experiment was arranged using Split Plot RCBD with two factors. Main plot was concentration of AB mix nutrient solution consisting of four levels (1600 ppm, 1800 ppm, 2000 ppm, and 2200 ppm), while subplot was fruit number arrangement per plant consisting of three levels (1 fruit 1 main stem, 2 fruits 1 main stem, and 2 fruits 2 main branches). Collected data were analyzed using F-test and further tested with DMRT at a 5% significance level. The results showed that application of AB mix nutrient concentration at 1800 ppm produced better fruit diameter, fruit weight, and fruit weight per plant compared to 1600 ppm. Application of AB mix nutrient concentration at 2000 ppm resulted in higher °°brix values compared to 1600 ppm and 1800 ppm. Treatment of one fruit per plant produced better fruit diameter, flesh thickness, and fruit weight compared to two fruits per plant. Treatment of two fruits on two main branches resulted in the highest fruit weight per plant. Treatment of one fruit per plant produced higher °°brix values compared to two fruits per plant. There was no interaction between AB mix nutrient concentration and fruit arrangement treatments.
