Thanks for the info. I think the two won't compete much for water because they have different root depths. Seems like I heard that somewhere. So, how does this corn and bean planting work? Do I just mix the two up in my planter and plant the two at the same time, or do I plant the corn first and plant the beans later, or do I plant a row of corn next to a row of beans?
I think you plant the beans about 2 weeks after the corn; or when the corn is up about four inches,
You might try looking up Three Sisters online, and find more information (the third sister is squash). This was the common agriculture in this area before the Europeans came. -- I just put
"three sisters" corn beans squash
into Google and got lots of applicable results. If you put in just "three sisters" without the crops you'd probably get a lot of unrelated stuff.
