Growing Rhubarb

View the Rhubarb page

Rhubarb has a tendancy to die back if too hot or cold, the crown still remains and will grow back when ready. Just dont drown it with standing water! I grow it in raised beds, containers and aquaponics beds, all with no problem as long as the roots do not remain waterlogged. Remember, if your rhubarb flowers it is either thirsty or hungry! So keep it well watered and feed monthly!!!
