The research was conducted under field conditions, in the Zona da Mata of Pernambuco state, Brazil. The experimental design was a randomized block with six replications. Treatments consisted of doses 0, 8, 16, 32, 65, 130 and 260 kg P2O5 ha-1. Was evaluated growth, fruit yield, number of fruits per plant and fruit weight. At the end of the growth cycle, was determined critical P level in soil. The plant height and stem diameter adjusted to the sigmoid model, with difference in phosphorus fertilization, in which it was found that application of 130 kg P 2O5 ha-1 provided greater plant growth, with values of 123.1 cm and 17.7 mm, respectively. The phosphorus provided increments in productivity attributes, being observed with the addition of 130 kg P 2O5 ha-1, gains of 3.44 Mg ha-1 of fruit, 3.33 fruits per plant. The P availability in soil increased with phosphate fertilization, which made it possible to determine the critical level in 79 mg dm-3.
