A system for bulk propagation of Quercus robur and Quercus petraea by cuttings has been developed. Rooting percentage and shoot growth could be improved by fertilizing the rooting substrate with Oscomote. After overwintering, rooted cuttings could be planted directly in the forest. Survival was much better than that of cuttings cultivated for 2 more years in the nursery. these 1-year-old cuttings were produced more cheaply than seedlings.
