Rootstock question

if i cut a thick piece of root of ,say from a peach tree will that piece of root grow and make a shoot and would it be considder as the same cind of rootstock as the one i’ve cut it from

Yes

The only no might be whether or not it will sprout a shoot. Some fruits will and some won’t. Peach I think it’s questionable. I don’t remember root sprouts from peach.

Can you get a root sprout from apricot? The tree has never suckered.

Not that I’ve seen but there are many apricot rootstocks. So some might well sprout.

I have a 25 year old apricot that has been an excellent tree. I have lost only two times in its 20 years of production. I think it is a Moorepark but I’m not sure. It topped out at about 15 feet so the rootstock has some dwarfing influence. I want to replicate the tree rootstock and all. I have never grafted scion directly to a piece of root. Any tips.
