what is best to feed it with, since i didn't prepare the ground with
manure?


I just add manure around the base (drip line) of the plant as it grows. I
believe it's impossible to overmanure a rhubarb is it's kept well watered.
Mine seem to like cow poop and they also seem to respond quickly to pelleted
chook poop for a quickk McDonalds type fix.
