Abstract
In this brief comment we show that, contrary to previous claims [Bartelt M C and Evans J W 1993 {\it J.\ Phys.\ A} 2743], the asymptotic behaviour of the Kashchiev model of polynuclear growth is trivial in all spatial dimensions, and therefore lies outside the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang universality class.
