The production of native species requires the knowledge of the best substrates and subsequent initial growth of these seedlings. This work aimed to evaluate the initial growth cedar seedlings (Cedrela fissilis Vell.) in different substrates and their initial establishment in field. The experiment was conducted in two stages. The first was conducted in nursery in a randomized block design with four replications. Each plot consisted of four seedlings in plastic bags. The treatments consisted of eight different substrates: T1 (sand+ soil+manure 1:1:1), T2 (sand+soil+Plantmax 1:1:1), T3 (soil+manure 1:1), T4 (soil+Plantmax® 1:1), T5 (soil+manure 2:1), T6 (soil+Plantmax 2:1), T7 (soil+sand 1:1) and T8 (soil).
