I have a walnut seedling growing well.

Do I cut the tap root off ???

If I do, what effect will it have when I plant it out.


As long as it has other roots it should be OK.
In Bonsai circles you would of necessity cut off the tap root in order
to pot it, but you would have to ensure it had made other fibrous
roots first.
