I've been using B118 root for many years. I've stumbled upon the first one that has suckered. 3 suckers to be exact. I have a hankerin' to try to harvest one or all but have a real concern about harming the mother tree (ChestnutCrab on B118). Anybody have success or failure on such an operation?
I see my options as:
A.) Cut them off and move on.
B.) Harvest 3 B118 rootstocks - maybe even try to stool them.
C.) Start FrankenBush and graft scions onto suckers just for the heck of it.
Your thoughts appreciated.
