How to Pick Rhubarb

Posted Mar 02 2011 5:47pm

Rhubarb is really pulled, not picked! Rhubarb stalks must certainly not be cut with a knife as fungal diseases attack the plant through the cut.

To pick rhubarb:

  • hold the stalk near the bud at the base of the stalk
  • pull upwards, twisting the stalk at the same time

Remember not to pick every stalk, leave some rhubarb to feed the root for next year.
