Forcing Rhubarb Have you ever tried forcing rhubarb? You’ll not only get an earlier harvest, the stalks will be milder in flavor (not as tart). The leaves will be pale, due to obstruction of sunlight, but look at how gorgeous the reddish-pink petioles are! Details below!☺️✅ In late winter, place a large pot over the crowns as shown. Cover any holes to impede light from penetrating. Covering the crowns will also create a microclimate inside warming up the soil and waking the buds from dormancy. ☀
