When to Harvest Rhubarb & How Much of my Rhubarb should I Pick?

Follow these steps to properly harvest rhubarb. Learn what to look for and how much to pick at one time. Ensure a careful harvest and you can pick again in the same year. Just remember, don't eat the leaves or the stems if they've been hit hard by frost and are looking wilted or droopy.

Bravo. "Just the facts, ma'am." I'm all for in-depth yammer but sometimes you just want to know the core details. For me, I don't do rhubarb (believe was trauma as kid from mistaking rhubarb pies for strawberry). Somehow landed last year on an 1883 homestead ranch farm, unworked for decades but a nice rhubarb patch similar to yours seen here. I ignored it last year but now will be harvested and delivered to the Ashland Mercantile. Appreciate not having to waste it! Cheers.

Hi sweetie, my name is Pat. I have a big problem. I moved to Marion il 9 years ago. I planted some dry like pieces of rhubarb I bought, and they grew and produced great rhubarb. But then I decided to move them so I could plant flowers there. Well sad story, they died. So I decided to re plant some back where I started, and I have been trying for 3 years now and it dies every time. I just spent $ 25 on two plants and they died also. I just went out and dug down to see what was going on and they were gone, just a clump.I do believe I planted it when it was too warm. But I love rhubarb, and want to grow it so badly but just cannot get it going again. Then last time I treed a month ago, and the were plants I bought at a nursery. I would so appreciate some help from you on what and how to do this for the next season. Thanks for listening. Pat in Marion il.

I planted 10 rhubarb bare root this past spring and I very happy to say they ALL are doing great. Should I wait a year before harvesting them as I feel they are still newest in the clay soil and I'm afraid they if I pull at them the whole thing will come out of the grom

I’m supposed to cut off the big flower break tall white seating out little flowers that sprouting up the top?
