      You need specialist equipment of course set to monitor time lapse recordings of the growth process.

      I am informed that rhubarb sounds like whalesong dropped 10 octaves.
      Rhubarb's growing noise is almost audible because it grows so fast - especially when it's force-grown on some fruit farms
      It's Deja-vu all over again!

        I always have rhubarb in the garden. Makes a lovely crumble with some apples from the tree.

        The nicest is the forced rhubarb you get about February time (put a bucket with a hole poked in it over the plant just after Christmas).

                    Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
