Is it too late to harvest sticks of rhubarb from the garden?

Our Advice:

Harvesting rhubarb usually ends around the longest day in June. This lets the plant grow so the crown has plenty of energy to produce a good crop next year. A new variety Poultons Pride (available next year) can be harvested until November
