I know someone did this already, but I've lost the thread, sorry.

Popped along to the allotment yesterday and had a look, and the rhubarb is
showing! Now this was showing on one plant a couple of weeks ago, just
about, but now /both/ are well on their way!

Nick is furious cos he wanted to split them!


Are you going to force it? At least put a bucket over it.

Only if you're going to dig it up and throw it away afterwards...


why? Forcing doesn't harm rhubarb.


Depends on how long you force it.
