I'm doing this, think traditionally you put beans in to climb the sweetcorn and squash to provide shade on the ground but I've got a small climbing squash.

You're right! He mentioned beans as well, but I had conveniently forgotten as I never grow beans, but love sweetcorn and squash. Found this online: https://www.victoriananursery.co.uk/How-To-Grow-Sweetcorn-Beans-And-Squashes-Using-The-Three-Sisters-Method/

Guy I work with suggests putting squash and sweetcorn together. As the squash spread they climb the corn plants. I might try that this year to save space.
