    The research was developed with the objective of evaluating the effect of QuitoMax® on the yield of garlic cultivation under organoponic conditions, clone “Chileno”, for this, four treatments were studied: T1 (control treatment, without the application of the product); T2 (100 mg ha-1); T3 (150 mg ha-1) and T4 (200 mg ha-1). The experiment was developed in the organoponic belonging to the Urban Farm, located at the University of Matanzas, a substrate made up of 80 % soil (red Ferralitic) and 20 % organic matter was used, arranged in a completely randomized design. Samples were carried out at 30 and 60 days after planting the crop to determine the agromorphological variables: number of leaves, height of the plants and diameter of the base of the bulb and at the time of harvest, the yield variables were measured: the weight of the bulb, its equatorial and polar width and the number of teeth. The behavior of the morphological and performance indicators did not allow to define in a significant way a stimulating effect of QuitoMax®, in the doses evaluated on the biological performance of garlic with respect to the control treatment, under the established study conditions. In the variables height of the plants and number of leaves, a positive response of the crop was evidenced in the period of greatest growth with the best response in the dose of 150 mg ha-1.
