Walnut groves are becoming increasingly popular in our country because the walnut trade is a very profitable business for those who already have a few trees in an orchard or even in their yard, if it is one with plenty of space.
Being a very large tree, it is also difficult to grow, especially since it needs to be protected from frost during winter periods. Most people turn directly to growers to buy ready-grown seedlings and very few try to grow a walnut from the seed stage.
If you are one of those gardeners who wants to do everything from scratch, with your own hands, to have the unique satisfaction of achieving something concrete through your own efforts, then this tutorial is for you. Even if you are not that kind of gardener, it doesn't hurt to watch this instructional video as you will leave richer in knowledge about gardening.
The first step is to get seeds, and these can be found in fresh walnuts, not in those from last season which have had time to dry out and you will want to facilitate their germination, and for this you will need to make some holes to remove the hard shell.
You will need to plant these seeds at a depth of 2-5 cm because being a very large tree, it also has very large seeds. The period after which the seeds will start germinating is about a month and you will need to have very fertile soil available, purchased from specialty stores.
