Walnuts are one of the nuts everyone loves to eat, because they are one of the four great dried nuts, rich in protein, fat, carbohydrates, calcium and so on. Everyone knows that eating walnuts regularly is very good for your health. When the holidays come, we often eat walnuts, and they are said to help boost the brain. In fact, the walnuts left over at home can also be planted into a lush, good-looking potted plant. The planting method is very simple.

Drop one walnut into a pot, and in ten days it grows into a potted green plant, as pretty as a money tree, and it can even bear fruit!

Growing walnuts into potted plants and waiting for them to sprout: the first method is to use green-skinned walnuts picked straight from the tree, then plant them directly in the soil and keep watering. You have to wait until the next spring for them to sprout. This takes a relatively long time.

So it is best to grow them from dried walnuts. Some flower growers have succeeded with this: in autumn, collect the walnuts, remove the skin on them, then dry them and store them well, and do not let them go moldy or spoil.

Wait until February or March of the following spring, and then you can start sowing. Before sowing, you need to soak the walnuts in clean water for three days.

Then prepare a pot of sand or sandy soil, put the walnuts into the sand, cover the walnuts with 3 cm of sandy soil, water to keep it moist, and place it in a sunny spot.

Water every day and keep the soil in the pot moist. You can cover the surface with a layer of plastic film or dry grass, which serves to keep in moisture and warmth and increase air humidity. After about ten-odd days, the walnut shell will split open and the little sprout will grow out. The seedling grows taller and taller, with an elegant shape and tender green leaves, as beautiful as a money tree.

Keep it in plenty of sunlight regularly, place it on a windowsill or beside a balcony, with good ventilation, and water promptly when the soil in the pot dries out. Once it grows to a certain height, you can fertilize it.

Gradually it grows from a small seedling into a large plant, as good-looking as a potted green plant, and it will also bear delicious walnuts.

If you want to grow your own potted plant and your own walnuts, just give it a try! Xiaoya thinks growing a potted walnut tree like this in the yard or on the balcony is very simple and fun!
