A fertilizer composition for application to leaves of a plant includes oxidized glutathione and one or more fertilizer components. A method for cultivating a plant includes applying oxidized glutathione and one or more fertilizer components to leaves of the plant. A fertilizer kit for application to leaves of a plant includes oxidized glutathione and a composition comprising one or more fertilizer components, wherein the glutathione and the composition in the fertilizer kit are separate from each other.

A homogeneous fertilizer granule comprises slow-release (e.g. struvite) and fast release sources of phosphorus (P). The homogeneous fertilizer granule may further contain other essential nutrients and micronutrients required by plants. A number of methods may be used to make such granules. One method includes introducing a struvite slurry or fines and a liquid supply of water soluble P into a granulator. Alternatively, dry raw materials can be mixed with water/steam and/or another binder prior to being fed into a granulator. In another embodiment, pre-mixed dry raw materials are mechanically compacted and crushed to yield homogeneous fertilizer particles.

A fertilizer comprises an intermediate-release source of phosphorus. The intermediate-source of phosphorus may be schertelite. In one embodiment, the intermediate-source of phosphorus may consist substantially all of the phosphorous content in the fertilizer. In other embodiments, the fertilizer further comprises one or both of a slow-release and fast-release source of phosphorus. The fertilizer may be in the form of a homogenous prill. A number of methods may be used to make such fertilizers.
