Planting Instructions:

Soil Preparation:

Choose a clear, sunny location that is not in the shade of other trees and receives at least 6 hours of sunlight each day. Trees establish roots better in sandy, well-drained soils rather than heavy, poorly drained soil. Remove weeds, large rocks, and litter from the planting area. Leave small weeds and dead grass, they will enrich the soil when turned under. Spade or till the soil 6-8 inches deep. Loosening the soil will help the plant establish strong roots. If the soil is heavy or clay-like, mix in some sand or compost to improve drainage. Optionally, either form rows of soil beds or hills 4-6 inches high and at least 15 feet apart. This formation of ridges will help with drainage, ensure good airflow, and make harvesting or maintenance easier. Lay down 1/2"-3/4" peat moss, sawdust, or potting soil, the soil surface. This layer is beneficial because it can the improve the germination environment and prevent soil crusting.

Planting:

Starting Indoors: Seeds require cold, moist stratification to break dormancy. Remove the outer husk and soak the walnuts in hot tap water and let stand for 24 hours prior to sowing. To stratify, roll seeds in a damp paper towel and place in a resealable bag. Place the bag in the refrigerator to keep seeds at 35F-40F for 90-120 days, mimicking winter conditions. After the stratification period, seeds should be ready to germinate. To germinate seeds, place the bags in a warm 70F-90F area. Check every other day. Once roots are visible, sow in moist potting soil and place in a sunny area that is at least 65F, about 1 month after the last expected frost in spring. Keep the soil moist, allowing the top inch of soil to dry in between waterings.

Once the seedlings have developed a few sets of leaves and are at least 6 inches in height, harden off seedlings then transplant outdoors in the spring, in a sunny location when temperatures are consistently above 65F. To transplant seedlings, prepare a transplant hole outdoors in a sunny, permanent location. Remove the plants carefully from the pots or flats and set them in the transplant holes, burying some of the stem in the ground. Pack the soil loosely around the plant and leave a slightly sunken area around each plant to hold water. Water the plants after transplanting.

Directly Sowing: If directly sowing outdoors, plant seeds in late summer to naturally cold-stratify seeds. Remove the outer husk and soak the walnuts in hot tap water and let stand for 24 hours prior to sowing. To plant, make holes 1-2 inches deep and spaced 30-40 feet apart down the rows of raised beds. Plant 1 seed per hole, then cover thinly with soil. Seedbeds can be covered with plastic film to promote germination. Water after planting.



Planting Depth: 1-2 inches
Within-Row Spacing: 30-40 feet
Between-Row Spacing: 40 feet


Care During the Season:

Black Walnut Tree enjoys deep, consistent watering during the growing season, especially in its early years or during prolonged dry spells, to support strong root and canopy development. Ensure it receives full sun for optimal growth, and apply a layer of mulch around the base to retain moisture, reduce weeds, and regulate soil temperature—keeping the mulch a few inches away from the trunk. Avoid over-fertilizing, as black walnuts generally thrive in moderately fertile soil, though a light application of balanced fertilizer in spring can be beneficial. Prune only to remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches, as minimal pruning helps maintain its natural form. Monitor for common pests such as walnut caterpillars and treat issues early to keep the tree healthy and vigorous throughout the season.

Harvesting:

Black Walnut Tree can be harvested in early to mid-fall, when the green outer husks begin to yellow, soften, or split, and the nuts start dropping naturally. Gather fallen nuts from the ground or shake low branches gently to release ripe ones, then remove the husks—wearing gloves, as they can stain—either by hand or by rolling the nuts underfoot. After husking, rinse the nuts thoroughly and allow them to cure in a cool, airy location for several weeks to develop their full, rich flavor. Avoid picking nuts directly from the tree while the husks are still hard and green, as they haven’t fully matured. Once cured, the walnuts can be cracked, stored, or used in a wide range of culinary recipes.

Healed my broken skin
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using Eucerin Advanced Repair Body Cream for my very dry skin, and it works great. It absorbs quickly, is not greasy, and keeps my skin moisturized all day. I also like that it is fragrance-free, so it does not irritate my sensitive skin. A little goes a long way, and the large jar lasts a long time. Highly recommend for anyone with dry skin.

My rating
Size: 16.9 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 16.9 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this lotion so much. It makes my skin hydrated and soft. Before, my skin would be dry and crack away from each other. My friends and some online dermatologists recommended this and it has been extremely helpful. If you use a scented lotion. Wear this lotion. Then the scented lotion and then the body oil. Seems like a lot of steps but this will help your skin in the future and will result in less dermatologist visits. It’s very soft and the first ingredient is water meaning it’s a water based moisturiser so the consistency is very good!

Always a Favorite of Mine
Size: 16.9 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This lotion is fantastic for dry skin. It moisturizes without feeling greasy, and it absorbs well so you’re not walking around feeling like you just dipped your arms in oil. I really like that it’s unscented, which makes it great if you’re sensitive to fragrances or just don’t want your lotion competing with your perfume. It leaves skin feeling soft and hydrated for hours. I’ve tried a lot of lotions over the years, but this one does a really good job when your skin is seriously dry and needs real moisture. Overall, a great everyday lotion that actually works. My skin definitely approves.

Problem finally solved! This stuff works.
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I'm 60 and have very dry skin despite eating healthful food and drinking plenty of water. I've tried every moisturizer available and I've finally found one that leaves my skin hydrated. It's the perfect thickness -- not too thick like a paste and not a thin lotion -- so it's emollient and soaks in without tugging on my skin during application. This will be my after shower body lotion from now on. I'm wearing shorts and sleeveless tops again! 🥰

I'm impressed. It's very good stuff
Size: 16.9 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I'm finding that menopause skin is very, very dry skin. Combine that with a harsh winter and my skin was in much worst shape than normal. I usually had noticeably dry skin on my legs & arms but winter made it itchy & more flakey. I started using the Eucerin calming formula but that did nothing for the dryness but did moderately help lessen the itching. I got online to see what I could do for the flaking skin, add moisture and curb the itching without having to go to a dermatologist because I didn't think I had a major issue. My reading recommended alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) formula moisturizers and from reading amlactin was very popular and received high marks but I wanted to look at & try a couple of things before I committed to just one as it's likely this will become part of my regular skin care and I'd need an affordable option. I discovered the Eucerin AHA formula on Amazon, liked the reviews & decided why not try it. The price point was very good compared to amlactin. I received the Eucerin 12/14/2017 and have used it religiously twice a day. The flakiness subsided in a week and the itch only occurs on my back where I can't reach to apply it. This stuff has been wonderful to apply to my skin. My skin is no longer flaky or ashy & the rough patches are gone from my knees & elbows. This stuff is very heavy but it doesn't feel greasy to me because my skin soaks uses it in pretty quickly. I am not sure if I could use this in a hot, humid summer but for the current -20+ wind chills I'm living through, that heaviness is working in my favor. If you don't want to apply a heavy thick lotion to your skin or if that type of formula could cause a breakout, this isn't the moisturizer for you. It doesn't really have a smell to me. Once I apply it I only smell the scent of my bee & flower sandalwood soap. This lotion is not scented so that's a plus for me. Also unlike amlactin it does not contain parabens. I did order the amlactin and will try it after this is gone but it's likely I will continue with the Eucerin AHA formula. It has worked very well for me. I've not done price shopping for this locally so I can't add anything in terms of costs on Amazon versus brick&mortar. But if you can handle its heaviness I'd definitely recommend it.
