I did my mullberries in late spring but can probably be done anytime with them. I just cut some new growth off the tree. Left two leaves on each plant. Took a knife and made a few scrapes on the part I'm sticking in soil. Coat the part of the cutting I want to root with raw honey and stick in a pot. Just used plain miracle grow potting soil. Had about 75% success. I found out later I also needed a male tree so went and found a male tree and repeated. They are all planted at my 160 in the same general area so I only planted 2 male trees. I put the cuttings in small 4" pots with a large tray. Put the tray of 4" pots in a white trash bag to act as a greenhouse. Worked like a charm. You can google it---lot's of videos on rooting cutting on youtube.
