I have two Hayward Kiwi branches (one male, one female) that I got from the California Rare Fruit Grower's 2006 Golden Gate Chapter Scion Exchange back in January. They have sprouted quite a bit and I'm not sure what to do with them. Should I:

1. Plant the whole branch in soil?
2. Cut the new (green) growth and root the cutting, then plant that?
3. Something else?

The branches are sitting in water on my shelf under grow lights.
