An intensive cultivation system has containers, which contain a quantity of earth serving to receive the plants, with a construction which is pyramid-shaped in a stepped manner and which forms at different heights and preferably on two sides a number of planting planes which are arranged partially above one another. A number of devices are provided which act as physical barriers and which interact with predetermined conditions of temperature, humidity etc. in the interior of the quantity of earth in such a manner that the root development of the plants, in contrast to the natural geotropism, takes place in the direction of the central region of the cultivation system so that the roots of the plants in any one of the planting planes do not touch the plants in a planting plane lying below.
