Rhubarb Crown Calculator — Spacing & Yields

Work out spacing and yields for rhubarb crown planting.

How We Calculate This

Crowns = plants that fit along length x plants that fit along width, based on the recommended spacing for the variety.

Standard varieties: 90cm apart. Compact: 75cm. Large: 120cm. Rhubarb needs plenty of space to develop strong crowns.

Yield estimates are for established plants (year 3+) over a typical April-June harvest season.
