Default WTD: Rhubarb plants

The message
from "mike. buckley" contains these
words:

You should never pull any sticks in the first year. Also, never give
rhubarb wine to anyone with arthritis, rheumatism, etc.

Not heard about the wine thing - why not?


It forms granules of some compound - probably an oxalate - in the joints
and it is *VERY* painful.
