rhubarb

I'm continually amazed at how fast the rhubarb is growing. Every day the leaves get bigger, and new crumpled ones start to unfold in the center of the plants. I've had to put out slug beer in a few areas of the garden, mostly in the rhubarb patch. So far got six mid-sized slugs. It seems to be working well, the two more eaten plants are showing less new holes every morning, and this one in the middle has no damage at all so far.
