Abstract
MELO, ANIELA PILAR CAMPOS DE et al. Substrates and organic sources for Physalis peruviana L. seedling production. rev.colomb.cienc.hortic. [online]. 2020, vol.14, n.3, pp.314-323. Epub Dec 07, 2022. ISSN 2011-2173. https://doi.org/10.17584/rcch.2020v14i3.8825.
The objective was to determine the effect of commercial substrates and organic sources on the production of cape gooseberry seedlings (Physalis peruviana L.). The design was completely randomized with a 2×3 factorial scheme using two commercial substrates (Carolina®, Bioplant®) and three organic sources (control, vermicompost enriched with yoorin thermophosphate and poultry manure) for seedling production. Adding poultry manure to commercial substrates negatively affects precocity and emergence. Carolina® is a suitable substrate for cape gooseberry seedling production without supplements using organic sources. Bioplant® behaves more like an emergence conditioner, requiring supplementation with organic sources (preferably vermicompost). Seedlings that are suitable for transplant can be obtained at 47 days after sowing.
