Thanks for your ideas. Actually, I have decided to go with the 4 inch ADS irrigation tubing supported by 2x4s. I'll post when I get it done. Right now I'm furiously trying to get two other systems online since spring has sprung here in Utah
I did get my peas started so they will be ready to transplant into the tubes when they get ready.
