Spacing for different veg growing up bamboo?

So moving this year from a growing a few things in pots to a proper little veg patch. Completely clueless. We got rows of bamboo canes 1m apart. So how far apart do I plant things like cucumber/courgette/runnerbeans/tomato/mangetout etc on the 1m apart rows? Follow the Seed packet Instructions or further apart or can you space them a bit closer?

Our beans and peas are usually 12 cms apart. Courgettes do take up a lot of space so 50 to 100 cms. We grow ours in large pots to save space.

That’s awesome about the beans thanks. So courgettes keep 1m for each other in rows and 1m apart?
How about cucumbers and tomatoes? I’ve got some mini cucumbers say only grow 60cm tall and some bigger ones say 2/3m

I grow mine in the green house. The cucumbers and tomatoes each have their own 30/35 cms pot.

Awesome, I was beginning to think I had far too many plants if I had to also space them 1m in rows too
