Abstract

The research was carried out in the nursery that is in laboratory building of Pinar del Río University "Hermanos Saiz Montes de Oca". In this work it was carried out a study of the influence that it exercised the growing media used in Pinus caribaea Morelet var. caribaea seedlings quality in the nursery stage. The growing media used was compound for the following mixtures: S1- Growing media patron. Soil common gathered of a species stand (100%). S2- Crowd (50%), more Humus of Worm (25%) more cow Manure (25%). S3- Crowd (40%) more worm Humus (25%) more cow Manure (35%). S4- Crowd (30%) more cow Manure (25%) more pine stand soil (50%). S5- Crowd (40%) more cow Manure (25%) more pine stand soil (35%). S6- Crowd (50%) more cow Manure (20%) more pine stand soil (30%). The container that was used to seeds sowing is conic and vertically oriented ridges with a 100 ml capacity. The germination of the seeds was evaluated. Were carried out three controls of quality from the intermediate phase to the 48 days of established the sowing and both remaining were carried out every 14 days, and it was analyzed the behaviour of the morphological parameters and their indexes. It concludes that the growing medium S4 showed the best results to integrate the different parameters of plant quality.
