8518 walnut is a high-quality variety of walnuts and a high-yield walnut variety with relatively economic value. However, in order to ensure its high fruit quality and high fruit setting rate, more attention must be paid to planting. That’s it.

Outstanding advantages of 8518 walnut

1. 8518 walnut saplings have strong early fruiting ability. When you plant seedlings that year, some will bloom and some will bear fruit. If the planting time is early, the fruit-bearing walnuts can mature on the saplings. 8518 Original walnut trees grow quickly and have high yields. Most trees can bear fruit in the second year after planting walnut seedlings; under normal water and fertilizer conditions, about 60 trees will bear fruit in three years. From then on, walnut seedlings enter the period of high yield year by year, and the fruiting period begins in the fifth year. The yield per mu of relatively barren hillside land is generally 600 to 800 kilograms. On land with good water and fertilizer conditions, the yield per mu can exceed 1,000 kilograms. It is the only country in the country currently where the yield can exceed 1,000 kilograms. A walnut variety with a yield of more than 1,000 kilograms per acre.

2. 8518 has strong disease resistance, fast growth and high yield. 8518 has strong early onset and strong resistance to natural disasters. Daily management of walnut trees is simple, saving labor and money. 8518 nuts are storage-resistant and can be stored at room temperature for one year without deterioration. 8518 walnut nuts are of high quality, and all quality indicators have reached the national walnut nut quality standards for premium fruits.

Cultivation technology of 8518 walnuts

1. Planting time: 8518 grafted walnut seedlings are suitable for growing on warm, deep, well-drained sandy soil and black loam soil, and should be grown in the sun. Plant on slopes and leeward locations. When developing 8518 grafted walnut seedlings in barren hilly areas, terraces should be built first, large fish scale pits should be dug, and soil and water conservation should be done well. Regarding planting time, in spring, plant early after the soil thaws. In autumn, plant early after the leaves fall and the soil freezes. In autumn, plant after the leaves fall and before the soil freezes. In spring drought areas, autumn planting has a higher survival rate than spring planting. The next spring germinates early and grows vigorously. When planting seedlings in autumn, the soil should be cultivated to prevent the seedlings from drying out. Method: Bend the seedling trunk into a bow shape, fix it, and cultivate the soil, mainly without exposing the trunk. In the spring of the second year, break the ground and straighten the trunk.

2. Planting method: The main root of 8518 grafted walnut seedlings is very long. Dig a pit with a depth of 0.8-1 meter and a width of 0.8-1 meter. First, fill the bottom of the pit with topsoil and base fertilizer, about 20 centimeters from the surface of the pit entrance. When planting, use scissors to trim the roots of the soaked seedlings whose roots have fully absorbed water, then place them vertically in the pit, with the roots stretching around, then fill the soil firmly until it is flush with the ground, then fill it with water and seal the soil.

3. Cultivation density: According to the general soil layer, planting can be carried out according to three meters of plant spacing and four meters of row spacing. In this way, about fifty-six trees can be cultivated per acre. If it is a relatively barren hillside, dense planting can be carried out appropriately, and the plant spacing and row spacing should be three meters to increase the yield per mu. The depth of cultivation should be determined according to the depth of the walnut seedlings in the nursery, which is generally five centimeters deeper than in the nursery. If it is relatively dry in spring, increase it by about ten centimeters.

4. Later management: After the walnut seedlings are loaded, it is necessary to water them once in a timely manner to effectively improve the survival rate of the walnut seedlings. You can also use surface covering film to conserve soil moisture. In winter, be sure to pay attention to antifreeze. You can use the method of wrapping hay, or you can use the method of overpowering the seedlings and covering them with soil, both of which can effectively prevent walnut seedlings from freezing in winter.

8518 walnuts are very convenient to eat. Unlike other walnuts, they can be crushed with both hands. It is easy to remove the whole kernel without hammering. No need for clips either.
