Tincture Black Walnut Hull Home Remedy

The green hulls of black walnuts (Juglans nigra) are used to make the tincture home remedy. The hull is what is on the outside; the walnut is in the middle of the hull. If you have never seen a fresh walnut hull before, you may be surprised to find out it looks like a lime. Pick up hulls from the ground under the tree. Collect hulls that are not cracked and still maintain at least half of their green color.
