Abstract
The quality of seedling production is an important factor to be considered in a vegetable production system. In view of this, the objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of different alternative organic substrates on the production of chili pepper seedlings in the conditions of Araguatins, Tocantins. The treatments consisted of the following substrates: T1: 100% terra preta, T2: 100% commercial substrate (Basaplant®), T3: 50% terra preta + 50% goat manure, T4: 50% soil black + 50% swine manure, T5: 100% organic compost. The Basaplant® substrate provided lower quality seedlings. Of the alternative substrates, the organic compost provided the best development of pepper seedlings.
