Transplanting Blackberry Plants

Q: I need more blackberry plants. Is it better to dig up new shoots (including some roots) when they are young or wait till the canes get several feet high, cut the canes into several sections and root the canes?
A: Both would work. If you have a lot of rooted sprouts coming up now, transplanting them would be the fastest way to get mature fruiting plants.
