          Abstract

          This paper evaluates the nutritional impact on growth, production and quality variables of gerbera crop when fertigated with treated domestic effluents. An experiment was carried out in greenhouse at the Embrapa Meio-Norte in Teresina, in the State of Piauí, Brazil, from July to October 2007. A completely randomized experimental design with five treatments and five replications was adopted. The treatments investigated were T1 - 100% of water and nutritional requirements of crop were met with chemical fertigation (N e K2 O); T2 - 25% volume of water through fertigation and 75% treated wastewater effluents (TWE); T3: 50% volume of water through fertigation and 50% TWE; T4: 75% volume of water with fertigation and 25% TWE; and T5 - 100% volume of water supplied through TWE. Leaf growth and plant development were favored by the application of 50% fertigation and 50% TWE (T3). As for commercial requirements, the best results for number of flowers were obtained with T4. However, concerning quality, T2 produced flowers in July and August with longer stems, but in the months of September and October, no treatment achieved this standard due to high temperature and low relative humidity of the air in the region.

          Com o objetivo de avaliar os efeitos nutricionais sob as variáveis de crescimento, produção e qualidade da gérbera (Gerbera jamesonii) quando fertigada com efluentes domésticos tratados conduziu-se um experimento em ambiente protegido na unidade da Embrapa Meio-Norte, em Teresina, PI, utilizando-se delineamento estatístico inteiramente casualizado com cinco tratamentos e cinco repetições. Os tratamentos estudados foram: T1 - 100% das necessidades hídrica e nutricional das culturas atendidas mediante fertigação (N e K2O); T2 - 75% do volume de água residuária tratada (ART) associada a 25% de fertigação; T3 - 50% de ART associada a 50% de fertigação; T4 - 25% de ART associada a 75% de fertigação e T5 - 100% de ART. O crescimento e o desenvolvimento foliar foram favorecidos pelo tratamento de 50% de fertigação associados a 50% de ART (T3). Quanto às exigências comerciais em número de flores, os melhores resultados foram obtidos em T4, porém, em termos de qualidade, o T2 apresentou maior altura das hastes florais, nos meses de julho e agosto; já nos meses de setembro e outubro nenhum tratamento conseguiu alcançar este padrão de qualidade em virtude de altas temperaturas e baixa umidade relativa na região.
