Rhubarb in containers

Question

I have rhubarb in a half barrel container. It is the second year after planting a large root, and I harvested only a few stalks. The plant looked ok for a few weeks, but now it looks puny. I fertilized with manure early in the spring, and It looked great. Now the leaves are small, and they seem to be dying off. Any ideas?
