“…The production of seedlings, in addition to the ambience, requires substrates that guarantee the mechanical maintenance of the root system and ensure the optimal supply of water, nutrients, oxygen and the transport of CO2 between the roots and the external environment (CAMPANHARO et al, 2006;Pelizza et al, 2013;JAEGGI et al, 2019). The commercial substrates OrganoAmazon® and PuroHumus have been widely used in the production of vegetable seedlings and studied in research (MONTEIRO NETO et al, 2016;MONTEIRO NETO et al, 2018).…”

In order to evaluate the influence of different environments and substrates on the production of chili pepper seedlings, an experiment was installed in a completely randomized design (DIC), with treatments arranged in subdivided plots. Five environments were evaluated: EA - agricultural greenhouse; TV35 - red screen with 35% shading; TV50 - red screen with 50% shading; TP35 - silver screened with 35% shading and TP50 - silver screened with 50% shading, and four substrates: S1 - OrganoAmazon®; S2 - OrganoAmazon® and PuroHumus®; S3 - OrganoAmazon, PuroHumus, soil and manure, and S4 (OrganoAmazon®®, PuroHumus®®, soil, manure and carbonized rice husk). In the photoconverter meshes TP35 and TP50, the pepper seedlings grown in the substrate S2 provided high IQD. The combination of agricultural greenhouse (EA) and S3 substrate promote superior quality chili pepper seedlings. S4 and S3 substrates are more affordable alternatives to the production of chili pepper seedlings. The photoconverter screens, associated with alternative substrates, do not favor the production of quality pepper seedlings.

“…1 Natural amendments (organic natural material) are added to soil or growing media to enhance the fertility and/or the structure of soil, thereby helping plant growth and development. [2][3][4][5] Various natural amendments application was shown to differentially alter the physiochemical properties of growing media and provided higher nutrients that consequently improved the yield index of different crops. [6][7][8] Previous studies corroborated that adding vermicast into growing media promote aeration, porosity, capacity of holding water, and support microbial activity and antipathogenic response.…”

Microgreens are relatively novel food with high nutrition and dietary benefits that can be influenced by the growing medium. Two experiments were performed to develop an optimum media for microgreensfrom kale (Brassica oleracea L. var. acephala), Swiss chard (Betavulgaris var. cicla), arugula (Eruca vesicaria ssp. sativa), and amaranth (Amaranthus tricolour L.). Experiment 1 was screening of media T1 = 30% vermicast + 40% sawdust + 30% perlite; T2 = 30% vermicast + 50% sawdust + 20% perlite; T3 = 50% vermicast + 30% sawdust + 20% perlite; T4 = 30% vermicast + 40% sawdust + 30% mushroom compost; T5 = 30% vermicast + 20% sawdust + 20% perlite + 30% mushroom compost; and a negative control (NC) = 50% sawdust + 50% mushroom compost. The positive control was Promix BX™ potting mix alone. Experiment 2 was to test the efficacy of two different sources of mushroom compost (White oyster mushroom compost (MC1) and Shiitake mushroom compost (MC2)) added to media T1 to T5 above. The results showed that the media physicochemical properties varied across treatments. Higher chemical parameters were obtained for T4, T5, and media containing MC1. Porosity and water retention were increased in media containing MC2 compared to the other.Seed germination, plant height, and microgreen yield were statistically (P>0.05) enhanced by T2 and T4 that contained MC2 compared to the rest. Microgreens yield was approximately three times higher in T2 and 4 with added MC2, except the yield of arugula which was two times higher in these media compared to the control. Overall, T5 alone, and T2 and T4 with added MC2 were the most effective media for microgreen production. Future studies will assess microgreens’ nutrients in different media.

Os substratos orgânicos melhoram o teor de matéria orgânica no solo, a disponibilidade de nutrientes e, consequentemente, tem-se mudas de maior qualidade. O objetivo foi avaliar o desenvolvimento de mudas de Capsicum chinense Jacq em substratos orgânicos. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi blocos ao acaso, com seis tratamentos e quatro repetições. Os tratamentos foram as combinações de ninhos de abelha (NA) e substrato comercial Click® (SC), misturados em proporções em base de percentagem do volume (S1=NA100%SC0%, S2=NA80%SC20%, S3=NA60%SC40%, S4=NA40%SC60%, S5=NA20%SC80% e S6=nA0%SC100%). Sementes comerciais de pimenta biquinho foram utilizadas. A altura de plantas, diâmetro do colo, número de folhas, comprimento da raiz principal, massa seca de raízes (MSR) e parte aérea (MSA), massa seca total, relação MSA/MSR, quociente de robustez e índice de qualidade de Dickson foram avaliados aos 56 dias após o plantio. As maiores qualidades de muda foram observadas nos substratos S1, S2, S3 e S4, contudo, o uso do substrato S1 é o mais recomendado, pois reduz os custos de produção é um material acessível aos produtores.
