Rhubarb thrives best with a balanced fertilizer, such as a 10-10-10 (N-P-K) or a nitrogen-rich option like ammonium sulfate. It's ideal to apply the fertilizer in early spring as new growth begins, using about 1 to 2 tablespoons per plant and incorporating it into the soil around the base. Additionally, a layer of compost can be beneficial for added nutrients and soil health. Always water the plants well after fertilizing to help the nutrients penetrate the soil.

Yes because it is a special; type and it's kind of like a fertilizer but different
Farmers apply fertilizer to their crops to provide essential nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium that are crucial for plant growth and development. Fertilizer helps improve soil fertility, increase crop yields, and enhance overall plant health by ensuring that crops have access to the nutrients they need to thrive.
Super Sour.
There is actually a device that is kind of like a fertilizer dispenser for plants, that drops chalk as you move.
Anything containing nitrogen. Ammonia, NH3, is a common fertilizer of plants.
Not closely. Celery belongs to the parsnip family, and rhubarb belongs to the buckwheat family. Celery is an annual, while rhubarb is not. They do visually seem like they should be more closely related though.
Fertilizer provides essential nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium to crops, which can help improve their growth, yield, and overall health. However, excessive use of fertilizer can lead to nutrient runoff, water pollution, and soil degradation. It is important to apply the right type and amount of fertilizer to maximize its benefits and minimize environmental impacts.
Nirogenous fertilizer like urea

The 0-11-52 means 0% Nitrogen (N), 11% Phosphorous (P) and 52 Potassium (K). The ratio of P to K that you need is 35/60 or ~ 1/2, but the P to K ratio of your "fertilizer" is 11/52 or ~ 1/5. You should get a fertilizer with a ratio more in line with what you need or expect to have to apply multiple fertilizers. Here is how you work out how much to apply per acre for each nutrient. Using Potassium as an example lbs to apply per acre = <lbs nutrient required per acre> / <% nutrient> lbs K to apply per acre = 60 / 0.52 ~ 120 lbs But like I said you would not get the correct amount of P with this fertilizer.
What nutrients are in Rhubarb? Even though rhubarb is considered a vegetable, it is most often treated as a fruit. Rhubarb provides a good source of vitamin C, fiber, and calcium. It is usually eaten cooked, and just like fresh cranberries, rhubarb is almost unbearably tart on its own. It needs the added sweetness of sugar, honey, or fruit juice to balance out the acidity. Since rhubarb is primarily used for pie, it is also referred to by it's nickname the "pie plant". WARNING! Never eat the leaves, neither raw or cooked. Rhubarb leves are toxic!
