This study aims to determine the effect of immersing rice seeds in Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) suspension. The study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with seed immersion treatment using PGPR bacterial suspension. The rice varieties used were Ciherang, Inpari 32, and IR64, where the seeds were soaked for 30, 45, 60, and 300 minutes, respectively. There were 12 treatment units plus one control by soaking the seeds in water for 60 minutes. All treatments and controls were repeated three times. The results showed that soaking rice seeds for 60 minutes gave longer root and sprout lengths of the three rice varieties. Soaking rice seeds for 30 and 45 minutes caused slower germination, and shorter root length and sprout length than the control. Soaking rice seedlings longer than 60 minutes did not alter germination speed than soaking for 60 minutes.
