Subject: [NAFEX] RHUBARB from seed

I'm needing to get 500 to a 1000 rhubarb plants going & at the price
nurseries are charging it'll take me years to finance that. I've
noticed a few places like territorial seeds are offering rhubarb
seed. They say right out that you don't know what yr getting, but I
wonder if in reality the variation would be all that great for
something like rhubarb? Since I'm going to use it only for wine
production & not fresh sales, I feel like I have quite a bit of
latitude in what I could use to make rhubarb wine. Anyone having luck
growing out from seed?
