The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a culture medium on which plants can be grown. This method is characterised by a) mixing I: a particulate base material, chosen from at least one of organic and inorganic materials, with II: a thermoplastic biologically degradable binding agent, b) heating at least the binding agent in order to at least partly fluidise it, c) cooling the mixture so as to substantially solidify the binding agent and whereby at least a part of the base material becomes bonded by means of the binding agent. The method according to the invention provides an environmentally safe and plant-friendly culture medium that is biologically degradable and retains its shape well.

L'invention porte sur un procédé de fabrication d'un milieu de culture sur lequel on fait pousser des plantes. Ce procédé se caractérise en ce qu'il consiste à : a) mélanger I : un matériau de base particulaire choisi parmi au moins un des matériaux organiques et inorganiques avec II : un agent de liaison thermoplastique biodégradable ; b) chauffer au moins l'agent de liaison afin de le fluidifier au moins partiellement ; c) refroidir le mélange de manière à solidifier sensiblement l'agent de liaison, au moins une partie du matériau de base étant ainsi liée au moyen de l'agent de liaison. Le procédé de cette invention offre un milieu de culture sans danger pour l'environnement et d'utilisation facile, biodégradable et conservant parfaitement sa forme.
