I have a Stratco planter box with no bottom and 30cm deep and standing on a partially shaded concrete slab. Will I be able to grow rhubarb in it under these conditions?

30 cm of soil on a concrete slab - I wouldn't do it. The shallow soil would require a lot of attention with watering and the concrete slab - how does the excess water drain away.
