Default "The three sisters" method

I have been wondering about this mixed planting, if you were to plant a few
plants of an Agricultural forage varieties which can grow to around 8ft to
give support for the beans (Wonder what would happen if you planted one of
the older varieties of Pea such as Epicure --which grows to around 6ft and
crops for several weeks-- instead of the beans).
Also on G.Q.T. on radio 4 the point was made that if you were going to plant
Cues instead of Squash then you would need to grow one of the outdoor
varieties.
