This is my plants 2nd season grown in the pot they came from. They spent a NY winter in my garage in between growing seasons. The plants did die off over the summer in the pot before I could plant them late summer. I finally got my rhubarb patch set up and the plants planted. They have come up beautifully with some really big stalks. I'm praying they survive the winter and I have a great 3rd growing season. My question is can I pull some of the biggest stalks and use them to bake a small rhubarb crisp now? They look perfect but some where I saw not to use this late in the year stalks. Since they are a whole newly grown stalk are they safe to bake with? Thank you!
