How long is the walnut fruiting period? Fruiting period maintenance and management methods

How long does the walnut fruiting period last?

The walnut's fruiting period is generally from late August to early September, and it usually takes 7-8 years to produce fruit. If it is converted into a grafted variety, it should be a stronger variety. The later results depend on the level of cultivation and management, generally 5 to 6 years. The fruit expansion period of walnut trees is generally from early May to late August.

Walnut ripening time

Walnut trees generally mature in autumn, and walnuts mature in early September. They can be harvested promptly after they mature. The maturity time will vary depending on the planting location.

Walnut fruiting period care and management

Walnuts consume a lot of water and nutrients during the fruiting period, so they need timely watering and fertilization, as well as pruning of branches and leaves to reduce nutrient loss and promote fruit growth. In addition, it is a sun-loving plant, and with sufficient light, the quality of the fruit can be effectively improved and the yield will also increase.

Fertilization during walnut fruiting period

The period when walnut trees bear a lot of fruit is the fruiting period, and the yield and benefits are at their peak. During this period, it is necessary to strengthen comprehensive management measures such as watering, fertilizing, pruning and pest control to adjust the nutritional balance of the tree, prolong the peak fruiting period, and prevent the phenomenon of alternate bearing years. At this time, the tree needs a lot of nutrition, and nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and trace element fertilizers can be applied.

Walnut fruit spraying

During the fruiting period of walnut trees, 200 times copper sulfate aqueous solution needs to be sprayed. Pay attention to spraying the trunks, branches and even the ground. In October, the incidence of diseases and pests of walnut trees enters a low period.
