The second phase of growth is the log phase, also known as the logarithmic or exponential phase. The log phase is marked by rapid exponential growth. The rate at which cells grow during this phase is known as the growth rate (k), and the time it takes the cells to double is known as the generation time (g).
During log phase, nutrients are metabolised at maximum speed until one of the nutrients is depleted and starts limiting growth.
