The last couple years my rhubarb has been very thin and spindly. What do I need to do to improve it?

1 Answer

Answer :

Do this:  Mix 1/2 cup of baking powder (Not Soda) with 1/2 gal. of spoiled milk, and 2 oz. of sugar; pour this mixture on the soil around the plants (do not till in), in the morning, and allow it to soak in naturally.  Do not water you plants with the mixture on the ground.  Two applications around 4 days apart should do the trick.  After the each application wait at least 12 hours before watering yor plants.  You should see a remarkable change within 3 weeks. -Birdy
