How to grow a Black Walnut tree from seed

Green Thinking

This is a step by step tutorial on how to grow a black walnut tree from seed going through all steps from seed collection all the way to the final product of a sapling. Black walnut trees are beautiful, growing tall and wide living hundreds of years. They are renowned for the gorgeous hard wood harvested from mature trees that is popular in furniture. Large trees can be worth thousands for timber. Black walnuts can be found all over the eastern United States and reaching into Canada. The trees product a very large quantity of walnuts once they reach maturity and the nuts are delicious both fresh and dried packed with great nutrients. Wildlife loves this tree!

Black walnuts produce a chemical called juglone, which occurs naturally in all parts of the tree, especially in the buds, nut hulls, and roots. The leaves and stems contain smaller quantities of juglone, which is leached into the soil after they fall. The highest concentration of juglone occurs in the soil directly under the tree’s canopy, but highly sensitive plants may exhibit toxicity symptoms beyond the canopy drip line. Because decaying roots can release juglone, toxicity may occur for several years after a tree has been removed but I have never seen any issues from this in my experience and see this tree all over forest.
