Is there any benefit to applying fertilizer more than once to the same crop? I don't mean on the same day but once a day until the crop matures or do we only need to apply it the first day when planting the crop to begin with to receive maximum benefit from the basic fertilizer type? Or does applying it each day give better benefit doing so?
If there is no additional benefit other than applying it only the one time, if we don't apply fertilizer the first day, does applying it on the second day work just as well as if we had applied it the first day?

It is a combination of the field's health and the fertilizer that will maximize star rank. If you are trying to get 3-star produce to complete story quests, using fertilizer every day will help to ensure you harvest the maximum star rank. Fertilizer can be applied to the same plant every day.
Applying fertilizer the second day will also give a boost, but you're also losing out on a day of growth by applying on day 2, meaning there is a greater chance that you won't achieve 3-star rank at crop maturity.

The visitor in the Village Hall talks about crop fields needing rest (not always having planted crops growing) so that the soil has time to replenish its nutrients.
How long between plantings do we need to wait for it to do this? I know we can wait and we'll get the ability to see their status but before we get this ability, I'm trying to see if there is a basic amount of time we can just wait for them to do so?

It only seems to be a few days between health changes from one level to another (blue/unhealthy, green/poor health, yellow/okay health, and pink/healthy). Adding the conditioner to the field speeds up the process.
It's still a bit unclear though. I had three fields that were in poor health, and one of them went from that level to okay and then healthy within 2 days, while the others remained at poor. I did not apply conditioner to that field during that time, but I had done so in the past.
It's probably best to wait for the conditioner machine before worrying about field health. The requests that require higher star ranked goods appear later in the game anyway.
