Should Walnut Trees Be Fertilized This Late, (July 22) In The Year?

We didn’t fertilize our Walnut trees in the spring. They are about six years old and have never been fertilized. We just purchased some 20-10-10 pellet fertilizer. Should we wait until next year to use it? The trees are healthy with a few hesitant leaves coming out of a few branches. Please let me know what your thoughts are. Thank you for your time.

No, this would be a bad time to fertilize. This will need to be done in early spring. This article will help:
