Does anyone grow bodi peas?

I love bodi peas and have brought some seeds back from the Caribbean.  If I start them off indoors then move them into the greenhouse do I stand a chance of success?  I would appreciate any advice.

    We grow Yard long beans, but they have to be started in heat and grown on in the poly tunnel to make sure we actually get a crop. So yes, if you can provide the heat they are possible. Delicious too!

    Thanks Berghill, I live in central Scotland, will I need to provide extra heat or will starting them off in the house, growing them on on a window ledge once the weather warms up and then moving them into an unsheated greenhouse be enough?  Can I use a tomato grow bag or would you recommend a different growing medium?  Do you fertilise?
