Agreed.
How does it work though with forced rhubarb which has no light? Always
wondered that.

Easy. After the forced crop is harvested they are allowed full light
until next spring. This allows the plant to store energy in the corm for
next year's forced crop.


Ah I see. Clever thing, nature.

Thanks
