good or bad idea??

first year growing beans. but i tried a different way of growing beans, it seemed like it would work in my mind but i'm having doubts as it grows.

i made a "trellis" in a circle maybe an 18" diameter of rolled fence about 5'6" high or so. i cut some holes in the side for hand access. i planted bush lake (about 12) on the inside of the trellis because they bear fruit faster than pole and started them a few weeks early. on the outside i planted Kentucky pole (about 12-15). but the pole have lapped the bush beans pretty badly and seems like the bush beans won't get enough sun. that being said the bush look great, good color but under the leaf canopy of pole beans and the pole are really starting to climb now.

thoughts?
