To this polymerisable agent and the filler are mixed together and then polymerised. As biologically degradable polymers it is possible to use, for example, polylactic acid, starch and other substances. The culture medium preferably comprises a foamed polymer, which improves the ability to absorb water. The invention also relates to a method for the production of such a culture medium and to a container into which the culture medium can be put for growing plants.
