The object of the invention is a plant cultivation container, wherein the plants do not need to be transplanted during cultivation or growth. The container is provided with pull-out trays and this allows continuous adaptation of the container volume to the growth and development of the root system. The container of the invention provides for continuous oxygen and air supply to the root system and for development of fibrous roots contrary to root spiralisation which is typical of conventional containers. The pull-out tray has several functions: partitioning of container volume to compartments, retaining of excess water while watering, and as a drip tray when the entire container volume is in use. The walls of the container are provided with notches at various heights which in conjunction with several pull-out trays partition the entire volume of the container along its height to several compartments. The notches are sized in a way to adapt to the thickness and height of the side walls and the bottom of a pull-out tray when the trays are inserted into the notches. The pull-out trays are simply insertable into and removable from the notches and this is why the container volume can simply be adapted to the growth and development of the root system.
A plant cultivation container formed as an integral container preferably of a quadrangular shape and comprising of four walls 2, 3 and a bottom 6 provided with grooves 7 with holes, wherein the container includes at least one pull-out tray 9, wherein the tray 9 comprises of a bottom 10, two side walls 11, 11′, a rear wall 11″ and a front wall 11′″ which is detachably attachable to the tray 9, and all walls 2, 3 of the container 1 are provided along their heights with horizontal notches 16 and vertical notches 17 for receiving the pull-out trays, wherein the notches 16, 17 are dimensioned in a way that, when the trays 9 are inserted into the notches 16, 17, the latter adapt to the thickness and height of the side walls 11, 11′ and the bottom 10 of the pull-out tray 9.
