(FD) is commonly found as shrubs and epiphytic plant in natural habitat and was later on cultivated at field for domestication production in herbal medicines and food industry consumable. However, troublesome arises as this species was not tolerant to the nematodes infestation as it was directly contact with the soil. This experiment was carried out in containerized planting to study the influence of media composition and water regimes on growth and chemical composition in promoting the growth, yield and quality of Ficus deltoidea Jack. var. trengganuensis. In the study of media compositions, locally available material includes cocopeat (CP), palm oil mill sludge (POMS), rice husk biochar, sand, mineral soil and BRIS soil were used either singly or in combination for the media formulation. Seven treatments were tested; CP singly, CP-rice husk, CP-POMS, CP-mineral soil, CP-BRIS soil, CP-BRIS soil-organic matter and CP-sand at ratios of 2:1(v/v). The effect of these media were tested by measuring their physical and chemical properties, vegetative and physiological growth and chemical composition in leaves extraction of plants were evaluated. After five months of transplanting, the plant grown in CP-RHB and CP POMSC were significant higher compared to other treatments with an average of 300 pieces of leaves per plant and 65 cm in height. CP-POMS also showed highest chlorophyll content and photosynthesis rate (155.38 CCI and 11.15 µmolmˉ²secˉ¹) as compared to other plants. Morever, percentage of isovitexin and vitexin compound in leaves methanolic extract were found maximum in the condition of CP-rice husk through HPTLC analysis (8.12% and 23.04%, ng/µg, respectively). The results suggested that cocopeat-POMS and CP-rice husk with their optimum condition of phsyico-chemical characterics have the capability to increase biomass, yield and growth for commercial production of FD. Meanwhile, for water study purpose, five water volumes treatments (400 mL, 800 mL, 1200 mL, 1800 mL and 2200 mL) were used. Vegetative growth gradually improved with the increasing water volumes, however it decreased after application of 2200 mL of water. Growth parameters, i.e. plant height, stem diameter, leaf area and dry weight of the economic yield which is leaves, as well as physiological parameter, i.e. photosynthesis rate, transpiration rate, stomatal conductance and chlorophyll content showed maximum result (220.1 cm, 17.16 mm, 18.98 cm², 125.63g, 4.35µmolmˉ²secˉ¹, 0.37 µmolH₂Omˉ²secˉ¹, 0.25 µmolH₂Omˉ²secˉ¹, 97.29 CCI, respectively) as the plants watered with 1800 mL of water. The same pattern was also observed for the chemical composition of isovitexin and vitexin percentage (13.98% and 19.39%, ng/µg, respectively) from the leaves methanolic extraction by HPTLC analysis. The findings indicates that growing media CP-POMS and 1800 mL water volume were two abiotics factor that can be controlled to optimize yield as well as the quality of F. deltoidea for commercial production.
