In the production chain of quality vegetables, the formation of seedlings is one of the most important
phases for the crop cycle. The objective of this work was to evaluate the production of
tomato seedlings, using different substrates based on soil and organic compounds. The experiment
was carried out in a completely randomized design with five different treatments: black
soil (50%) + bovine manure (25%) + cashew cider (25%), (25%) + T5: Black soil (75%) + bovine
manure (25%) + T5: Black soil (50%) + Black earth (100%). The data were submitted to analysis
of variance by the F test and the means were compared by the Tukey test (p ≤ 0.05). Better
seedlings of carolina cherry tomatoes are obtained when produced using substrate consisting
of black soil and the mixture of black soil + bovine manure + coconut husk.
