Are these a "determinant" variety of plant that shut down after a few bloom cycles?

Some kinds are like that. Sometimes you get a second round but not as good as the first. We grow snap peas which are always being picked before they are ripe. The plant tries to replace them. As soon as they are allowed to ripen the plant dies. We pick the pole type green beans constantly for the same reason.
