I wonder if any of Huahua's fans are particularly fond of eating nuts? Now that people's lives have improved, more and more friends are paying attention to health and diet. Nuts are a food that people often overlook but that is very beneficial to our bodies.

Walnuts especially - people often say eating walnuts boosts the brain, and this saying is not without scientific basis. Walnuts contain fatty acids and trace elements that are not easily obtained from our everyday meals, and eating a moderate amount every day is beneficial and harmless to our bodies. With so many benefits, walnuts are somewhat pricier, but Huahua thinks that only a high price buys good things, and spending money on this is still quite worthwhile!

What many of you may not know is that walnuts can actually be used to make potted plants too. A walnut potted plant is niche and costs nothing - just one or two walnuts will do! Without further ado, let's quickly follow Huahua and see exactly how to grow a potted plant from walnuts!

The first step is of course choosing the walnuts. It is best to choose dried walnuts, as this gives a higher survival rate. Everyone needs to be careful: when buying walnuts, be sure to distinguish dried walnuts from roasted walnuts - don't spend ages growing a roasted walnut and end up with nothing, then wonder why!

Some friends may choose to use fresh walnuts, and fresh walnuts work too. But you need to remove the green skin and then dry them in the sun. Choose suitable weather for planting. Before potting, first soak the walnuts in water for three days, and you will find the walnuts have sprouted small shoots; once sprouted, the walnuts can be potted and planted!

Choose soil suitable for walnut growth - generally sandy soil, which has higher air permeability and is more suitable for walnut growth. Bury the walnut in the soil, but do not bury the walnut's sprout too, so the walnut grows quickly.

After burying the walnut, make sure the potting soil stays moist, and you can also cover the pot with a layer of plastic film to prevent water evaporation. Check the soil often and just keep it slightly moist. It is best to place the walnut potted plant where it receives scattered sunlight - sufficient sunlight is what lets the walnut potted plant grow quickly.

At around the half-month mark, the walnut's sprout will grow bigger and bigger, gradually turning into leaves and branches, and little by little it will become a bonsai. Actually, by this point the walnut potted plant is more or less done - and if you care for it carefully for one or two years, it may even bear walnuts!

It just requires fertilizer and more effort to care for. Friends who want their walnut to bear fruit can keep working at it; if you just want to enjoy it at home, simply watering it and giving it sun now and then is enough~

Isn't it simple? You can try it with two walnuts too~
