Did think about a poly tunnel but over the years several on my site have been destroyed by strong winds Your plot looks great Just being nosey about the water pipes to your water butts ?
You have done amazingly well. The Three Sisters, is a symbiotic growing technique, thus one plant "using" another for its needs, providing shade,moisture,nitrogen.even suport from bigger plants to smaller ones. Recomended is sqaure of sweetcorn,surrounded by beans, then a ring of squashes, I am going this, this year, pumpkins at the edge, not growing spuds this year so plenty of room, and my ______dwarf beans refuse to germinate!
When I started the project the pipes were already there coming down from the adjacent garages, so I am using them. The water would affect the stability of the greenhouses as it would get boggy in that area. I am growing sweetcorn,pumpkins and squash near each other but no growing beans up the corn. I am attempting to grow squash vertically as well by using a pallet or two. Will post pictures when finished.
