  The reproduction rate of your colonists depends on what kind of planet they inhabit. An Earth type or Oceanic world will reproduce at a steady rate, arctic and rocky will remain about constant, desert and mountainous see a slow decrease over time, and volcanic and greenhouse worlds decrease fairly rapidly. You will have to transport colonists from Earth in Sol or from neighbouring starports to keep the population up.

  The colony morale also has a (smaller) effect on reproduction rate. High morale such as Jubilant or Unity is enough to counteract the residual decrease of the desert and mountainous worlds so that the population does not dwindle away.

  Hope this helps!

  content morale, non-prison government and atleast 10 medicine per 100 colonists on the planet should be enough to keep the people count steady or growing on any planet.
