ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE: In an apparatus for growing vegetables continuously by the hydroponic system, a plurality of identical containers, equipped with lateral apertures, is arranged one on top of the other to form at least one hollow vertical column coprising, at regular intervals along its axis, equidistant coplanar apertures (growth levels) throught which the plants may grow. Means are provided for raising the column, lowering it, and keeping it vertical, the said means being in the form of a cable secured detachably to each container, together with means for spraying nutrient fluid at the top of the column, for collecting it at the base, and for recycling it to the top. This apparatus may be used for the execution of a method of cultivation consisting of the following steps: placing the plants in the uppermost container, waiting for a number of days equal to the growth period in days divided by the number of containers in each column, taking the last container from the bottom of the column, lowering the column through a distance equal to the height of the container removed, placing a new empty container at the top of the column, placing new plants therein, and repeating the operation until the first full container reaches the base of the column with the mature plants.
