I had to move my second season rhubarb from the garden to the plot, its never done much and everytime it does it gets eaten alive by slugs (even with pellets)

I finally threw in the towel and moved him to the plot. where my first season plants are five times the size. I hope it comes back okay, it had been well and trully mashed 

I took off the trashed bits and left it with two leaves, fairly new and slug nibbled free. Can I use the stems I removed, I know people talk of it being too late to pick, but they are still edible are they  :blink:

You can always eat the rhubarb, but if theyre old stems theyll be pretty stringy.
Generally rhubarb thats not growing strongly (nice juicey stems) doesnt make very good eating.
I usually only pick the stalks whose leaves are still a bit crinkled, which means thyre young.

Bon appetit

Okay may make it into a jam or chutney instead, I am now growing 3 different varieties and they say variety is the spice of life
