want to transplant a sucker sprout

I'm interested in trying to get a sprout from a sucker lead of an oak tree and transplanting it to grow a new tree. I'm not sure how to do this, though. Not sure how to clip it, then what to do next. For example, to I put it in water and roots will start growing? At what point can I put it in the ground?
Thanks.

You might try air layering as discussed here:

Problem with growing Basil

D

dys199 on May 06, 2004

I am now having problems with my Basil. They were growing great until one day I noticed that one of my Basil leaves had turned grey like the leaf had dried out. I snipped off all the grey leaves and the next day more appeared. This has happened in all three of my Basil plants. I give my plants plently of sunlight and dont over water them. What is causing this is happen and what can I do to stop it.

Grafting Apple Trees

S

scolega on May 18, 2004

Whomever Can Help; I want to learn how to get a apple tree started from a branch off one of my apple trees. Is it possible? I don't want to graft a branch onto the tree but instead I want to start an entirely new tree so I can plant it in the ground. If you can help it would be great. Also can I start peach trees in the same way? I have one peach tree in my back yard. The other 3 died after 8 years of production. I want to start one from this tree before it is too late. Please Reply, Thanks, Scott
