Yeah, I did 6 inches apart alternating with corn.
I planted 100 of each. 46 corn sprouted. ALL of the peas sprouted. I am NOT doing that again.

I learned this year that peas, beets and radishes tend to have a 100% chance of growing after being sown. I had to do so much thinning for the root veggies, which made a nice salad. I just let the peas live super close together just to see what would happen. I had 2 fences around them and ran every other one a different direction so they had better airflow. They only died after the Japanese beetles attacked. Thankfully the beetles only wanted the peas and left everything else alone

Yeah my last harvest was entirely unexpected. I just ignored the plants because I was about to pull them out and there were 3-4 more gallons of peas when I was ripping them out of the ground. 25 feet of snow peas planted an inch apart was a stupid idea....I'm so tired of them. Next year I'll do a few snow peas, but some green and yelllow beans for the rest of the row
