3 Sisters Trial

[walshie]

There is a lot of conversation on the vine about the 3 sisters , so.... i thought it would be a good idea to start a thread on a trial where those that try the three sisters method puts in what they are planting along side sweetcorn and how they get on.

I have recently sown sweet corn incredible which are just starting to show their heads in my unheated greenhouse, once they are of reasonable size they will be potted on and then out into the plot around May time. In about 2 to three weeks I will be planting Berlotto beans and Courgettes (probably the ones that are coming with this months GYO mag) to be planted along side the corn.

Please add what you are growing along side corn and how you get on.

hi, for my 3 sisters I was going to grow yin yang beans & Gold rush courgettes. the only problem being is I think my ying yang beans are dwarf french, so may have to rethink this to borlotti. Dex
