Can anyone shed any light on what could be eating my rhubarb leaves? I thought these were poisonous to most creatures? Thanks

    Poisonous to people @Michaelwheten but slugs snails and beetles love them! Unless the damage is extensive enough to weaken the plant I'd just use the stalks with damaged leaves - since you won't be eating them  :)

    Other more experienced folk may come along and help you some more, I am just an amateur pootler!
