Healthy soil and sustainable growing

["E. E. Mitchamore Jr" <emitch@att.net>]

Never mind the hybrids.  As you know, I'm trying to plan my garden (it's ready to plant), and I want to try the Three Sisters.  Last year each of my Summer Crooknecks took about 4' x 4' before they were done.    The Blue Lake pole beans wanted to be more than 5' tall, and were at least 2' x 2' each.  I'm having a hard time visualizing how that's going to work together in my tiny garden.

This is not to promote Park seed - I don't buy from them and don't plant
hybrids ever - but look how they try to jump on the bandwagon!  Companion
planting? Three Sisters? Sure. Note they use this angle to promote their
own named varieties of hybrids, mainly the same old hybrids with fancy
names tacked on.
