Previous videos dealt with scion and grafting techiniques, here's one way to raise stocks. These are shoots that grew up from the roots of a tree on MM106 rootstock I cut down a year (not 2 years as I misspoke in the video) ago, and I heaped up some earth round the base to help with rooting.

You could take this further by digging up roots and planting them out in fertile spoil and watering and weeding them. Thisvideo is about opportunistic ue of suckers. I have planted these rooted suckers out and will see how they do over the year, and aim to graft them in 2012.
