Hi,

Totally daft question probably, but I have just read the Christmas Hamper post, and saw one person was making Rhubarb & Ginger Jam. So can I still use mine then. I am the only one that eats it in our house, and it seems such a waste. We have two big plants and they have sprouted again.
Would it be ok to make jam or any thing else Rhubarby with?

Well my Rhubarb and ginger chutney looks good!!!!!  Use it!!!  It's a shame for it to go to waste!!!!!!  It's no good for crumbles though the rhubarb we picked just wasn't good enough....bit limp and ? well you get the jist!!!!!

T this time of year I leave my Rhubard to 'die off' and replenish itself for next year. I pick the last lot at the end of June and it then has a 'rest' until next spring.

The jizz is don't pick it after mid summer's day. Not sure if that's right but that's what I've done.

Yeah ive stopped picking mine to , which is such a shame as its growing amazingly still.

I've stopped picking mine too - so that the leaves can replenish the energy for next year.
