The disclosure relates to a growth system for growing plants. The growth system comprises a holder which at least partly defines at least one room for holding a growth medium. The top side of said room is open at least partly such as to allow plants to extend upwardly from growth medium held in said room during use of the growth system. The growth system further comprises a first wall element for temporarily substantially closing off a distal end side of said room. Further, the growth system is arranged to allow the first wall element to be moved away such that growth medium can be slid out of said room through the then open distal end side of the room.
