ResumoThe macronutrient concentration, the dose and the fertilizing application frequency affect the vegetative development of the plants in a significant way. The aim of this work was to evaluate the vegetative development of plants of Cattleya intermedia x Laelia purpurata in the acclimatization phase, fertirrigated with different formulations of N-P-K and with different fertilizing frequencies. The formulations of N-P-K (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium), applied to the plants with the irrigation water, were 10:10:10 and 6:6:8, to each seven or fifteen days, in the concentration of 2 g.L-1, during 10 months, mantaining a control group of plants that did not receive the fertilizers. After that period, the following parameters were appraised: length of the aerial part; length of the largest root; pseudobulbs number; number of roots; total fresh mass; pH, and electric conductivity (µS) of the substratum. Considering all parameters, the fertirrigation with N-P-K 10:10:10 in the interval time of 15 days, in the concentration of 2 g.L-1, provided the best vegetative development of the intergeneric hybrid Cattleya intermedia x Laelia purpurata during the acclimatization phase.
