We grow Oregon Sugar Snap, Cascadia and Snowbird, after soaking overnight, on a truly ratty, by now, cheap garden trellis netting and have bumper crops. Unless you grow short vines you'll have a collision at the top of tomato cages. Better to string the netting between bamboo poles. We're in former zone 6, now 7a in southern New England.
