Harvesting wet rhubarb???

That hasn't been our experience. We harvest only in months ending in "y". The May crop tends to have slimmer stalks and be less stringy than July, but it depends on the weather.

I had heard that if you harvest when leaves are wet that the rhubarb that wasn't harvested will get rusty and not be good.

Been there, done that!!!

What difference would it make?
You eat the stalks, not the leaves, and we get them wet when we wash them anyway.

My wife makes the best rhubarb pie, she said it doesn't matter. Rhubarb is a weed it will always grow back even after a bad winter.
