Yes I understand what you mean, that the fence is positioned so they get as much sun as possible before it shades them. It could still limit growth a bit and this brings me back to what I was thinking that if the plants were larger they'd have more pods by now, that when it gets cooler there they will take forever and a day to ripen but more pods... is still more pods. They haven't grown much for being that age and if they had grown more earlier, may have set pods earlier too.
Since you can't change the sun what remains is assessing drainage and nutrient levels next year, and any that you don't want to dig up can have bed sheets or tarps thrown over them at night to help them survive moderate drops into freezing temperature. Plastic tarps would need removed promptly in the morning once it is above freezing since they trap air and moisture much more than sheets.
