A plant growing system for moving growing plants subject to positive control, the system including: a first guidance panel with a panel center and panel slots, a further guidance panel with a further guidance panel center and further guidance panel slots providing guiding tracks for a multitude of plant holding elements. The first and further guidance panels are coaxially arranged and adapted on top of each other to provide a rotational movement between each other around a common rotation axis. Plant openings for the plant holding elements are formed at intersections of the first and further guidance panel slots. Plant openings are distributed in a spiral-like pattern around the rotation axis showing a sense of rotation, wherein in the sense of rotation of the spiral-like pattern, several or all spiral-adjacent plant openings are arranged at a plant opening angle with respect to the rotation axis.
