Nice. I've always had trouble with peas. Beans grow great though... there's these chinese long beans that grow to literally 32" long beans and they taste just like greenbeans. I had more of those than I knew what to do with. They grow like a weed. They're amazing. If I was trying to maximize for food production here in east Texas I'd probably go with chinese long beans, cucumbers, eggplant, and asparagus.

I've got broad beans growing but that haven't produced any beans yet. I should look into the Chinese long beans.

The snow peas are going off. Only thing other than lettuce that's doing really well, it has been unseasonably warm this winter and none of my winter crops are doing that great.

Good luck! There has been a lot of heat here as well as not much rain so it's been a tough summer to grow things, for me at least

Same here for me in CO. It's just been so damn hot lately with such little rain. Has hailed maybe twice so far this season down in the plains.
