Sorry, but some things are best relied upon from the book.

Not many care what one claims to have done in the past that they can't
prove anymore than barrroom anecdotal drivel... folks can and do claim
all sorts of miraculous feats on teh net but unless they can offer
actual proof it's just liquor tawkin'. All the sites from educational
institutions that I read say that black walnut must be stratified to
germinate... I've never done it myself but I believe edu sites. I
ain't gonna spoon feed yoose on this one, look it up your ownselfs. I
don't like walnuts anyways, pistachio rulz!

Sorry, and your wrong. I have been a forester for 40 years. The process is
the same, you said scarification is to remove the husk, wrong, it is to
reduce the thickness of the shell. Moisture and freezing does that in
nature, stratification as well. But in a nursery, you will note the
following phrase, stratification is necessary in the deep south.

I don't need to look it up, junior, I live it.
