Bear with me!!
Peas come in all sorts - 1st early, 2nd early and maincrop. They also come in various heights from dwarf to 10' +
Some need supports - netting etc, others are self supporting but like twiggy things to hang on to.
My daft idea is.............to multi sow a mixture of peas into each module - a dwarf, medium height and tall pea and plant them out together. The dwarf ones should crop first, then the medium ones and later the tall ones.
They'd all use the same supports, or each other to grow and it would maximise space. No need for lots of pea sticks - all in together.
I imagine a bit of a tangle but pruning out the dwarf ones as they finish should help,
What do you think? Would it work?
What about beans???
