I've never used three sister's period; not in a row format, container gardening, or with SFG.
The main questions I have is it possible to use three sister's method in SFG. If so, do you have to use pole beans, or can you use bush beans, or does it not matter (same question for what type of squash to use, vining or bush types).
Also traditionally you use squash, but can you use any type of curcubit (melons, cukes, etc.) for three sisters?
Since you're growing a vine type crop (squash) then is it necessary to construct a vertical gardening structure if you're using three sisters?
Also, since you'd be growing three crops in one square, do you have to adjust the spacings (how many plants per square) with three sister's method? With beans, does it have to be green beans, or can it be any type of bean? |
