Rhubarb Crown Rot / Quick Tips / Homegrown Garden

[@cliffordchristopher1]

Thank you Katrina. Though I am sorry you have had this experience, you may well have helped us all by showing us what to do.

[@ingeleonora-denouden6222]

Sorry for the loss of your rhubarb. And thank you for the warning. I think the most important is the prevention (be careful with watering). Probably this fungus is already in the soil (everywhere) and it attacks weakened plants.

[@SofiNme365]

Thanks for sharing, that’s exactly what happened to my plant.

[@jennyjohnson9012]

Exactly the same happened here. Trouble is we get an awful lot of rain here in SW Scotland during the winter and the ground gets waterlogged. Thankyou for your tips. I haven't removed it yet, but its my first job today!

[@jean-loup2186]

Your garden will be more and more beautiful ! Thank you to show it ! Good weekend !

[@beverley1539]

Thankyou for sharing Katrina. Blessings to you and yours Luv Ontario Canada 🐝

[@das_moosmutzel696]

It's a shame that the rhubarb died, but the allotment looks so beautiful already. I am so looking forward to your April garden tour. ☀️💐

[@homegrowngarden]

Soon! There's so many flowers and blossom out now, you're in for a treat!

[@davidthescottishvegan]

That's 😭 the Rhubarb got crown rot. I planted rhubarb the first year of getting my plot and it was 3 varieties and only one variety has survived because the other two got crown rot. Thanks for sharing this video Katrina.

[@melstill]

I've lost two rhubarb plants to crown rot in the last few years. Breaks my heart because I really like rhubarb. So this is welcome information in my efforts to protect my remaining plants.
I have one rhubarb plant that acts like a weeping rhubarb. That is it grows flat on the ground. None of the stalks will grow upwards. I've never seen anything like it. It's taken three years to establish itself to the point I may be able to harvest a few stalks this year, maybe. Gardening does sometimes have its mysteries.

[@joaquimcosta5629]

I really do enjoy yours videos. You could use Trichoderma Harzianum is a fungos that is also used as a fungicide. It is used for foliar applications, seed treatment and soil treatment for suppression of various disease causing fungal pathogens. Thank you very much indeed.

[@abbey5574]

Everything is so beautiful in the background!!!🥰🥰🥰

[@carmenbailey1560]

Thanks for sharing those titbits. I just planted rhubarb last fall for the first time. My leaves are just emerging from the ground now. Everything around you looks so good. We are just starting to warm up here, our weather goes up & down a lot in the spring. Again thanks for sharing. 👍❤️😊

[@ahighlandgarden]

What a beautiful garden you have 😀

[@pwjmsmit]

Hi Katrina! This videoclip from Homegrown Garden are very interesting about Rhubardb Crown Rot and your tips! Every time, I am enjoy your videoclips! Greetings Pieter Smit from the Netherlands!

[@BriansGreenGarden]

I love rhubarb, hate the rot. Great tips! Thanks.

[@itsmewende]

Aww that's such a shame, glad have some more, looking beautiful I may say. Thanks for that advice, I'm sure what you plant there will be lovely, and...well looked after. Hope you have a wonderful sunny weekend.!

[@jillmjohnson4606]

Thank you I will be on the look out now! I really enjoy all of you videos and seeing your garden. 🪺🌷🌻

[@bradatkins9616]

Oh gutted for you x thanks for the tip , the plots looking beautiful if that’s any consolation x

[@vizulfun]

i have heard a tip from a old veg grower to burn a wee bonfire on the area to cleanse the soil

[@jayneeburks8482]

Valuable information. Thank you Katrina.

[@tankgrrl07]

My Rhubarb has done exactly the same this year. I will have to look at what I can do with the soil as the rhubarb was in a large planter with salad crops and I need to remove the planter. They’re in my garden though so slightly concerned it will spread to other parts.

[@gardenhighlightsworm]

Thank you for sharing the information.

[@debbiewilson5739]

love this and your garden looks great can;t wait see all the blooms soon

[@homegrowngarden]

April tour coming soon! 🌷

[@grahamwakelin8656]

more good tips again, thanks Katrina.

[@jackieives4535]

Thank you, useful info as I planted rhubarb only last year 🙂

[@philliplarking3255]

Thanks for this, I've heard that sowing mustard can help clean the soil.

[@chancemiller9340]

I’m sorry to hear about your rot. 😢

[@susanapantalita2163]

Love your garden

[@iartistdotme]

So sorry! I love rhubarb but am unable to plant here in Florida but if I had a plant as beautiful as the one you have left it would be devastating! I adore rhubarb pie!

[@atefbasha1809]

Welcome!!Together!!Katrina 💏💏✌🇺🇸🇺🇸🌵⚘❤🌸🐘🐼🐼🐈🕊and all a great me to you So much more and the team working

[@gardentours]

That sounds really dramatic 🤔 Thanks for sharing. I hope your other rhubarb is safe now.

[@francismaloney8775]

Thank you, 🙋‍♂️👏🌹

[@christiegrows2022]

Hi Katrina, sorry to hear that I’d be disappointed too. Comes across as a sentimental plant to you so extra disappointing. Thanks for sharing if not heard of this before. All the best Christie

[@ransfordrowe6409]

Sorry to hear about your rubbarb.

[@homegrowngarden]

All is not lost, it's an opportunity to plant something new though. I probably had too much of the rhubarb anyway!

[@marmotlord]

Could this be the 'Self Sufficient Me' channel for the northern hemisphere?!

[@hummushero9428]

Is Rhubarb in the Goosefoot family? (spinach, chard, etc...) not the subject of the video but I was just wondering while watching it because I realized it looks similar to Chard. Your garden is gorgeous....Intelligent and lovely young Lady in a lovely Garden! 👍🏽

[@centraltexashomestead-mike4956]

Great video!!!!!!

[@anitasanders7442]

Love your channel!,

[@davewilkes1657]

it's a same that you list your rhubarb all the hard work you've done exspecley when you got to replace the soil now but if theres anything I can do to help

[@metamud8686]

Oh those braids look soo nice on you! I know this is about rhubarb, so sorry, but had to say it. :-)

[@homegrowngarden]

Thank you! I don't really go for the double plait but it was a nice change.

[@emilyj.2264]

Thanks for the video, was the only info I could find about crown rot for rhubarb. I am pretty sure that's what has happened to all our plants. We dug up one crown and the roots have that same pumpkin colour but not as mushy as yours in the video, more spongy texture. Would it still be crown rot, but progressed less? What colour are the roots normally?

[@suwansiricroce8395]

Thanks for the heads up and good tips! I’m curious what new David Austin rose you got? I got 5 new this year 😍

[@nori8223]

Your movie is very beautiful. which camera are you using ?

[@kevinstanton7338]

do any mushrooms kill it?

[@453421abcdefg12345]

Could you water heavily with Jeyes fluid to kill the ground spores of fungus, by "dumping" the infected soil surely you are transporting the infection to another site, why not use the flame gun on the soils when is spread out thinly on the ground, that would kill off all spores. Chris B.

[@chrislyon1042]

your just as beautiful as the plants im attracted like ive never been

[@lalaholland5929]

How are all your seedlings coming along?

[@homegrowngarden]

You’ll see in the April tour!

[@stevendowden2579]

bad that

[@eccentricbeliever7]

That totally sucks. But you know what, you walked so we could run

[@tristinchristenson6349]

Damn the bad luck! Is cinnamon a good treatment option?

[@homegrowngarden]

Once you have it there's not a lot you can do. It might be worth trying if the disease hasn't taken hold yet but once it attacks the roots it's hard to reach with cinnamon anyway.

[@tristinchristenson6349]

@@homegrowngarden such a bummer!

[@user-fg2cm1fw8p]

It's not true that flooding causes rhubarb root rot, and if you disagree, I'll show you my rhubarb plants in a wood chip covered (wine caps) peat bog soil.

[@The_man_himself_67]

Let's take a moment of reflection here and remember the rhubarb.

[@homegrowngarden]

1 minute silence 😔

[@marcusseidel6824]

Why dont you desinfect your soil ? ..use garlic.
Also Phaecilia is a soil cleaner.
