Default Autumn sown peas

Suspect it wouldn't work as you would be constantly watering. Drying out
would be a real problem as peas like a lot of water. And to get a worthwhile
crop you would need a lot of baskets. But; try it and see. I've learned a
lot by just trying things out. I grew potatoes in a dustbin that I'd cut
holes in just like a strawberry planter to see if it worked - it did.

I've been thinking of trying some in hanging baskets. I don't have a
lot of room (and I don't trust my dog.)
As long as they get enough water, do you see any problems?
