i grow mine on a trellis. i have found over the years pole beans produce vast amounts of beans! VAST!

my trellis is 8' long and A shaped at each end, it is made of pipe. i put an 8' X 5' piece of crw on both sides and a 2' piece of 2" X 4" welded wire fence from the crw down to the ground.

i put 2 cukes plants and ONE pole bean plant on one side and typically 4 pole bean plants on the other side. experience has showed me that if i put just 2 plants on that other side i'd have plenty of beans with a total of 3 plants.

both cukes and pole beans grow vigorously and fill both sides with their respective growth to the point it is hard to find the cukes but especially the pole beans, it is a jungle! now i am just feeding me and i still give away and freeze pole beans.
