“…Among these models are: Spillman, Mitscherlich, Logistic, Gompertz, Richards, and others (Regazzi, 2003). These models have been used to plot growth curves for some crops (Lopes et al, 2007;Vieira et al, 2008;Lyra et al, 2008); however, there are no studies of growth curves using non-linear models found in contemporary research on ornamental plants.…”

RESUMOThe objective of this work was to plot the growth curves and determine the plastochron and the final number of nodes of China pink seedlings grown on different substrates. Thus, 392 China pink seedlings were grown on seven substrates under greenhouse conditions, in Santa Maria in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The growth curves were plotted using the logistic model. The plastochron was estimated by the inverse of the angular coefficient of the simple linear regression between the number of accumulated nodes and accumulated thermal sum from the subsampling of the seedlings. In all substrates, the logistic model fit better for the variable number of leaves than for the plant height. The plants in substrates with 50% of soil plus 50% of rice husk ash, and 80% of rice husk ash plus 20% earthworm humus had the longest cycles with 74 and 65 days, respectively. They completed the cycles with a thermal sum of 1317.9 ºC day for number of leaves and plant height. The growth curves that were plotted by the logistic model and the plastochron of the China pink seedlings are dependent on the type of substrate used. The commercial substrate Mecplant ® had the best results. The average final number of nodes of the main stem of the plants was 14 for all substrates.
