    Succession vs Rotation

    Last season I planted peas in early spring followed by green beans, then green beans again planted in mid August. Seemed to work out with decent size crops. Will be moving to fresh new bed this season.

Not sure why so small, other than maybe to many bell peppers to support large ones. I did have enough to make stuffed bell peppers dinner 2 times...
