Plant growth and support module

A method of manufacturing a green wall, comprising the steps of:

• a. providing at least two plant growth and support modules, each of said modules comprising (i) a backing, (ii) a hydroponic substrate, wherein said hydroponic substrate comprises an array of holes for receiving a plant and/or a growth medium, (iii) an irrigation layer, wherein said irrigation layer comprises a capillary material, and (iv) a front, wherein said front is connected to said backing, enclosing the hydroponic substrate and the irrigation layer, said front comprising an array of openings, said array of openings are aligned with the holes of the hydroponic substrate, and wherein both the backing and the front comprise glass fibers chosen from the group of alumino-borosilicate glass fibers, alkali-lime glass fibers, alumino-lime silicate glass fibers, borosilicate glass fibers, alumino-silicate glass fibers, or combinations thereof, and are interconnected by means of an infusible stitching;
• b. pre-growing a plurality of plants in the holes of the hydroponic substrate;
• c. assembling the plant growth and support modules into a green wall by fixing the backing of said plant growth and support modules to a wall surface.
