Growers around here start their peas in sections of plastic roof gutter
filled with starting mix. They aren't that unwieldy if you cut the 10 ft
lengths in half. Don't really need end caps if you are gentle when watering
and don't plant right to the very end. Can easily be set over heat mats.
When it's time to transplant, make a trough in the soil approximately the
same depth/shape as the gutter. Push each section of peas right off the end
of the gutter into the trough.
Do I understand you correctly that for 1000 row feet of peas you would need 1000 feet of gutter?
