Leave the rhubarb alone!

No doubt you’ve been enjoying crops of rhubarb for months now, but growth will soon stop (or may have done so already in the heat) so it’s time to make your last harvest and then leave plants alone to replenish. You can continue to water plants in dry periods and give an occasional feed of a general fertiliser, such as Growmore, but don’t divide plants until after the leaves have died down in autumn.
