Before I moved to the country I was able to grow rhubarb prolifically for years, never having a problem. I moved to the country about 5 years ago and I can't grow a rhubarb to save my life. I've tried year after year and they all die before the year is even really started. I've tried planting in regular dirt. I've tried planting in compost. I don't know what to do. Hopefully the pictures show what we're going through here. I thought maybe it was Botrytis but that really doesn't cover what the symptoms are.
The leaves tend to have a red tinge around the edges and then the red will take over the entire leaves. The plant will lose vitality and then die. I've lost 3 of 5 plants this year already.
