Michele in Ohio asked, "This is a little off topic, but has anyone seen
recent research on the three sisters technique for squash, corn and
beans?"
Michele,
Please check out the Southern Exposure Seed Exchange website. I believe they have information on three sisters growing. It turns out it takes special varieties, bred for the purpose, to make that work and you have to know when to plant them. Otherwise, the beans will pull down the corn and it will become a mess. For their ready-to-go three sisters garden, they even have a seed mix:
