Hi friends. I'm new to the group and bonsai. Wondering if any of you have any tips on collecting scrub oak. There's a ton that needs to get cleared out on my family's property for fire mitigation. Would love to collect one or two but there's not much information in the net about this species. One blog article I read said June-Aug was the best time to collect scrub oak, but that was in the UK. Is that likely to apply here in CO? Also, is pure pumice the best thing to plant it in immediately after collecting?

I wonder if @Dan W. has any advice. Gambel oak really don't seem to like their roots tampered with much when I have tried to collect them.
