I've used the hortnova with peas and it worked OK. I used t-posts every 8-10' and a heavy twine at the top to hold the hortnova up.

By way of experimenting I planted Lincoln and Green Arrow peas each with a row on chicken wire beside a row with no support. And I am glad I did as if I did not have those on wire I would not have had many peas.The unsupported rows are rotten at ground level, due to trapped moisture, during this the driest year I have seen.

Chicken wire being the price it is brings my question which is what are any of you using for crop support?

Does anyone have experience with Hortonova 13FG, (Johnnys, 79" x 3280' $3280.00) ?

Your thoughts and stories would be appreciated..
