Folks - I have heard that one ought not harvest rhubarb for consumption
after Memorial Day. Anybody know anything about this? Does it become toxic?
Thanks, dylan
I, for one, never harvest rhubaarg until memorial
day as it is not ready; then I harvest for a
month or so. Here after about July it gets tough.
