About the only thing that is growing on my lovely allotment is rhubard, and it wasn't covered.  When I am rich I will shop at Waitrose.  Tesco's is poo.

I wouldn't dig Tesco's into my plot. Be reasonable!

[tim]

Over a Kilo.  I'm rich!!

that is a fantastic harvest.  Ours are barely an inch tall.

For some reason supermarket rhubarb is horrendously expensive.  It is not difficult to blanch some with a bucket and get earlier, pale pink stalks.  I asked and got foc a stack of florist buckets from our recycling centre and rhubarb blanching is one thing they are used for.  The edges of the upturned bucket are weighed down with soil or fixed down with tent pegs.

  about £3.49 in Sainsburys.  I always look at the prices, it makes me feel really good to see how much money I'm saving and that theres no nasty chemicals used.  Great with ginger for jam making as well as puddings.

Beat me to it, asbean!!

I just picked this rhubarb this morning, first of the season. 
It weighs 1kg 450 gr.
I'm rich (in rhubarb terms  ;))

[Sparkly]

Looks great. Ours is not far off ready now.  ;D

My rhubarb has grown about a foot this week - should have picked some, looking forward to picking some next week (I 'stew' it with honey and sugar (and any other fruit in season), then eat it with Greek Yogurt....delish! can't wait)

I popped an empty compost bin over one of my crowns. I have lovely long pink stems which are so sweet & much taller than the other crowns.
