Today I went to a University of California Cooperative Extension-sponsored field day at the Nickels Soil Lab near Arbuckle, where farm advisors gave an update on their long-term experiment to see what will happen to walnut trees if you prune them more or less aggressively or don't prune them at all. Their message again this year: Don't prune so much, if at all.
