ABSTRACT OF THE INVENTION A plant growth bed for growing plants includes a bag formed of a relatively thin plastic sheet material impervious to passage of liquids and air therethrough with a relatively high loft bedding of crimped textile fibers substantially filling the bag. The major portion of crimped textile fibers are hydrophobic staple fibers and the remaining minor portion of the crimped textile fibers are hydrophilic fibers intermixed or blended together. The high loft of the textile fibers provides open spaces around the fibers to allow for optimum air for proper root development and plant growth. The bedding is readily compressible as for compact shipment to about 1/5 the thickness of the uncompressed high loft bedding. In an uncompressed condition the bedding has an overall thickness of at least about 3 inches and a density of 0.5 to 2 pounds per cubic foot. The bedding of fibers has the ability to retain amongst the fibers forming the bedding at least about four times its weight of a liquid.
