Stool Beds: How to propagate hazelnuts and other trees clonally on their own roots

You can propagate hazelnuts, chestnuts, and many other kinds of trees using stool beds! We use this method for clonal propagation, creating "self-rooted" trees, similar to layering. The resulting nursery stock is true to the named variety, and will be quick to produce nuts (or fruit) - unlike trees grown from seed. Since they are on their own roots, there is no risk of graft failure or incompatibility.

I spend so much money at this place every year!! Best nursery ever.

your video just popped up in my feed as so much stuff do, but this is one of these I knew instinctively that I had to see. And I was not dissapointed. I just got my own homestead with 2 ha of land and one of the first things I did was to buy three hazelnuts from a local nusery and I want to propagate them myself, and with this I feel I got enough knowledge to pursue that goal. Putting a ring of wire near the base is simply ingenious, what a smart thing.

Thank you for sharing this information! I have a number of hazelnuts that are just about the perfect stage for doing this. I'm thinking I'll cut some of them back this fall and give it a try in the spring. As I operate my own sawmill, I produce a fair bit of sawdust.

Another great video. For newly rooted chestnuts trees i would probably grow them in a nursery under 30% shade cloth for one year before planting in full sun in a field. If planting in a partially shaded location you can probably get away with directly planting in the ground.

New shoots like that from a willow tree are used in a fertiler recipe, for the soil.

Are you leaving a certain number of stems to feed the root system or are you harvesting all the suckers. Also, what month of the year are you harvesting your rooted susckers. Thanks for the video!!

I was curious about both of those things, too.

First video of yours I have seen. Nice! How tight do you make the wire girdling? Thanks.

@burntridgenursery591 17 күн бұрын

As tight as you can get it, so that the wire can't move. The tighter it is, the sooner roots will start.

Will it work for all-in-one almond trees too? Thanks

So something like what you showed us here can be used with apple trees? I have a apple tree that I must have planted too deep and it is suckering. If I dig up some of those suckers they will produce trees? gotta try this. Also will be trying to get some wild hazel nut trees to produce suckers for me. Great video with great information. Thank you.

@siriuscowking8615 23 күн бұрын

As long as there's enough root attached to the sucker it should work, just remember that the variety of apple produce will be the one from the root, you may want to graft on it for another kind of apple. This guy also has a great grafting video

@burntridgenursery591 17 күн бұрын

Make sure the suckers are coming from above the graft. If they're coming up from below the graft, then they're rootstock suckers.

Thanks for the great video! Have a question. How are Hazelberts propagated? Are they stool layered or bred from 2 specific parents?

@youtuudodo 24 күн бұрын

I have successfully planted filbert hazelnut from planting seeds. So buy some raw nuts and leave some in the refrigerator for a few months before planting them.

@@youtuudodo I have some hazelbert trees, just wondering what the official method of propagation was :) TY

@burntridgenursery591 17 күн бұрын

A hazelbert is a cross between the Eastern bush hazel and a European hazel. For clonal propagation, they can be propagated in the same method of stool bed layering.

@@burntridgenursery591 Thank you! I knew that only another hazelbert could pollinate and get nuts, so wondered the specifics of propagation.
