The increment in forest plant production implies greater demands for fertilizers and commercial substrates. An alternative is organic amendments such as mixtures of biosolids and compost. The objective of this work was to determine the effect of both products as a substrate mixture for the production of Pinus leiophylla in a nursery. A randomized experiment with five replications was designed to test four mixtures composed of biosolids, compost and agricultural soil: M1: 70 % agricultural soil+30 % biosolids; M2: 70 % agricultural soil+30 % compost; M3: 50 % agricultural soil+30 % biosolids+20 % compost; M4: 50 % agricultural soil+20 % biosolids+30 % compost, and a Control with 100 % agricultural soil (five treatments). Morphological variables, quality indexes and foliar nutrient concentrations of the plants were determined to evaluate the response to the use of substrate mixtures. The statistical results showed that the addition of biosolids and mixed with compost favored plant development by presenting higher values in diameter, height and total dry weight (3.69 mm, 9.6 cm and 3.3 g) as well as relative growth in diameter (0.08 mm month-1) and height (0.1 cm month-1). M2 obtained the highest values of N, P and K compared to M4, which would imply greater absorption of these nutrients. The plant produced with these amendments developed quality attributes and increased foliar nutrient concentrations.
