If you planted out transplants now, you would have a good crop before you plant anything else when it comes time to plant other things you can pull them up

Or...you could plan ahead and plant them to one side of a square. As long as they don't shade your beans too much, they will be done producing by the time your beans get big enough to matter. Remember, it will be a fully mature plant versus a seedling, so they can potentially share the same space for a while before they have to compete.

Will peas cascade down if planted without supports? I usually plant my cucumbers in planters growing down a wall. Since they wouldn't need to share a trellis, I'd think that might work better, if the peas will go down the wall too.

I'm not sure..I've never tried it.

Somewhere in the dim recesses of the mind, IIRC I had an ag class that talked about if enough tendrils don't feel support, they stop making auxin or similar chemical that signals favorable growth. I know my peas in the ground just sit there until I give them a string to climb up to the trellis...

At any rate, the radishes go in the ground before the peppers and toms and next to the lettuces and such, and you harvest these plants before they get both shaded out and too hot and bolt. The warm seasons replace the cool seasons. Your toms will get going just as the lettuce bolts. You'll see.

I've heard that bush peas don't need a trellis. I need to check out what Dan said because I was hoping to let my early anns just fall over the sides of the box.

Bush peas are fine with no support but mine are better with a little tepee. Never tried having them prostrate.
