It sounds as though your strings are horizontal. It is better if they are vertical. The pea tendrils will wrap around a vertical string and continue to follow it up. You will have to continuously train them from string to string if horizontal strings are used. For a raised bed, a support of the type that Mel shows in his book works fine. Many methods of construction have been proposed by list members. oldjohn@juno.com John Orwick El Monte, CA [20 miles east of Los Angeles] On Fri, 20 Jun 1997 12:09:58 +0000 Rhyan <rhyan@ICAN.NET> writes: >HI I have four pea plants growing and I am going to use my balcony >railing to train them up.
